Water and Wastewater Budget

Water and Wastewater Rates

Council approved water and wastewater rates based on water consumption effective April 1, 2024.

Capital Infrastructure Fee

The Capital Infrastructure fee is a fixed quarterly charge based on your property’s meter size. This gives the Town a stable source of annual funding to cover the costs of maintaining water supply and delivery as well as wastewater collection and treatment. Visit www.townofws.ca/watervideo

The Capital Infrastructure Fee is a fixed rate to ensure that every time you turn on the taps in your home, there is clean, safe drinking water available, and the dirty water is taken away in the wastewater system. The fees will support our water and wastewater capital infrastructure as follows:

Water: Pays for water distribution, collection, treatment and infrastructure maintenance and renewal.

Wastewater: Pays for wastewater collection, treatment and infrastructure maintenance and renewal.

Details can be found in the staff report approved by Council.
