The City of Blythe bills for water based on a monthly meter fee plus a fee for all water used.
Water consumption is billed in units of 1,000 gallons. Currently the city bills $3.02 for every 1,000 gallons of water used in a single family residence. See Water Rates for more details.
Use your bill to understand how much water you use. For instance, a family of four that uses 13 units of water over a 30 day period used 13,000 gallons of water (13 units x 1000 gallons). Over a 30 day billing period they used 433 gallons of water per day (13,000 / 30). Therefore, on average each person in the family used 108 gallons of water per day (433 /4).
Use the difference between winter water consumption and summer consumption to see how much water you use outdoors.
See Water Conservation Tipsfor ways to lower your water consumption and possibly lower your bill.
