The City’s Water Leak User Fee Adjustment Policy provides an "Above Ground Leak" adjustment opportunity to those who have experienced an unintentional water leak due to failed plumbing, such as a leaky toilet or faucet. Adjustments may be considered once in a lifetime per property and per owner. The user rates account will be adjusted for up to one billing period where the leak was present, and the consumption was the highest.
Alarming Fact: High-volume water leaks often come from toilets. They are hard to detect and are usually caused by worn or misaligned parts. A silent toilet leak can be as small as 30 gallons per day (GPD). Larger leaks can be up to 6 gallons per minute!
