Here’s How Much Your Otay Water Bill Is Going up Next Year

Southeastern San Diego County residents can expect even pricier water bills due to higher sewer rates that their water agency approved earlier this month.

Otay Water District board members unanimously approved gradually increasing sewer rates over a five-year period. Next year’s hike takes effect in January and will raise the cost of sewer service by about 4%, though increases in subsequent years could reach nearly 10%.
