The Hawaii County Department of Water Supply, which is a semi-autonomous agency that operates and maintains water systems with revenues generated through water sales, currently charges $1.80 per 1,000 gallons consumed. A monthly average cost for water consumption only is about $21.60.
Found the Above info on the net dated oct 2012.
Just got a letter in the mail. Didn't they just raise the rates not too long ago?
HB Water wants to charge $4.23 per 1000 Gallons and $41.43 monthly flat rate. Basically a 40% rate hike over both consumption and monthly charges. I'm guessing my bill will go from the aver 35 to 50 bucks or 600 a year. I like to pay my bill in advanced. So instead of giving them 425 bucks I now gotta give em 600. I wish HB had an online bank payment program.
