COMMUNITY CALENDAR
from May 17, 2023
Another rate hike would be set for July 2024
EBMUD says that 52 cents of each drinking water rate dollar go to infrastructure improvements; 31 cents goes to storage, treatment, and delivery of water; 8 cents to administration; 4 cents to customer service, 3 cents to natural resource management; and 2 cents to regulatory compliance.
The utility wants to make $2.5 billion in water system investments, including replacing 127 miles of pipelines over the next five years and a seismic retrofit at the Lafayette Reservoir.
The complete proposed budget is available at ebmud. com/rates.
On Sunday, May 21, EBMUD will celebrate with a 100th birthday party and community fair from 11 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. at the Temescal Regional Recreation Area featuring live music, food trucks, and the East Bay Regional Park District mobile fish exhibit, which is a 1,500-gallon aquarium on wheels.
