This represents the first water & sewer rate adjustment since July 2019. CUB customers continue to receive the benefit of the lowest water & sewer rates in the region. Surrounding utilities charge 33% – 125% more for water and sewer services. The CUB Water & Sewer Department remains 100% debt free and strives to hold costs down while maintaining an infrastructure that promotes development and the highest quality of service.
