The record
“WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Citrus Heights Water District ("District") wishes to adopt Miscellaneous Fees and Charges, and Capacity Fees effective 2026 in order to pay for the operations and maintenance of the water system, pay interest charges and principal payments on all outstanding bonds as they come due, and provide reasonable cash reserves, and capital improvement funds to cover needed capital improvements and unforeseen expenses and emergencies; and”
“Capacity Charges ensure that new, reconnected, or expanded water service connections contribute an equitable share toward the District's existing infrastructure and assets. Using a System Buy-In Methodology, the District accounts for the current value of the system capacity required to serve additional users. The calculation of these charges is based on: • The meter equivalent; • The replacement cost of District assets; • Less depreciation and capital projects currently in progress; • Less outstanding debt; • Plus a 2.0% adjustment in accordance with the Engineering News Record.”
“The Citrus Heights Water District (CHWD or "the District") was founded in 1920 as the Citrus Heights Irrigation District. Today, the District provides water service to approximately 70,000 residents across a 13-square-mile service area.”
