San Diego City Council to Again Take Up Water and Wastewater Rate Increases

The San Diego City Council will again consider a steep increase of water and wastewater rates Tuesday, following a decision last month to punt the discussion in hopes of friendlier numbers.

In city documents ahead of Tuesday’s meeting, those changes did not appear to come about. The proposal before the council is to increase water rates by 63% through 2029 and wastewater rates by 31% in the same period.
