Ever wonder what your monthly utilities bill pays for? It takes an extensive system and dedicated, technical team working behind-the-scenes to deliver safe drinking water, collect and treat wastewater, and manage drainage throughout our community.

When you pay your water bill, you’re helping to fund:

• Water acquisition and storage facilities
• Investment in old and new pipes, pumps and equipment to treat and deliver water 24/7.
• Monitoring and testing to meet safe drinking water standards and protect the environment.
• Compliance with new government regulations.
• Long-term planning to ensure Englewood has secure water supplies for the future.
• Meter reading and billing systems to accurately record water use and alert customers to potential water leaks.
• Customer service and communications to keep customers informed and encourage conservation.
• Technical experts and dedicated workers to manage this vital resource and provide water you can count on day and night.

For all of these services, your water still costs less than one penny per gallon, and Englewood’s rates remain lower than those of our neighbors.
