2012 Retail Water Rates
Effective January 1, 2012
Click to view 2012 Wastewater Rates
On September 20, 2011, the Fort Worth City Council adopted the following water rates which take effect January 1, 2012. The water portion of the bill consists of two charges: a monthly service charge and a volume charge. The monthly customer service charge is based on the size of the water meter serving the customer. The volume charge is based on actual water usage, measured in cubic feet (cf). (1 cf = 7.481 gallons; 1 ccf = 100 cubic feet = 748.1 gallons). Volume rates vary by customer class.
The City Council decided not to increase water rates in 2013.
New water and wastewater rates were also reviewed and analyzed by the Retail Rate Structure Advisory Committee to ensure each class of customers pays fair and equitable rates.

*Rates for outside-the-city-limit customers have a 1.25% multiplier.
