The Palmdale Water District introduced the “Water Budget-Based Rate Structure” in 2009 and our customers have become pros on using water more efficiently. In April of 2012, 83 percent of our customers are staying within tier one of their water budget allocation and are receiving the lowest possible rates.
The sustainability of California’s economy depends upon a reliable source of water. The Sacramento_San Joaquin River Delta (Delta) is the hub of our state’s water delivery system and home to one of California’s most important ecosystems. Twenty_five million Californians —nearly two_thirds of the state’s population — and millions of acres of farmland rely on water that passes through the Delta. The survival of many endangered species depends on the habitat of the Delta.
In order to take advantage of the best Southern California Edison rates available for PWD’s booster stations and well sites the District meets regularly with its SCE representative. These meetings provide the District with the ability to keep up to date with current rates, or when necessary, change to new lower rates to keep costs down.
The District is pleased to introduce your newly elected Directors of the Palmdale Water District.
The new website was designed and created with you, the customer, in mind. Easy management of accounts, paying bills, finding service applications, rebate forms, educational projects and programs, and employment opportunities are among the website features available right at your fingertips!
Customers will no longer receive separate late notice billing. In the near future, monthly water bills will state the amount you owe with a “pay by this date” and an amount to be paid after the due date. To prevent additional charges please send your payment in before the due date.
At the December 22nd Board meeting, Palmdale Water District’s Board of Directors approved the 2011 Budget and reduced the Elevation Booster Surcharge. The Board of Directors were pleased with the cuts taken by staff and approved the 2011 Budget.
