New Accounts

December 6, 2014: The Board has approved ordinance No. 2014-3, repealing sections 6.02.01, 6.02.02 and 6.02.03 related to tenant accounts. This change discontinues the practice of processing tenant applications for water service and moves the responsibility of putting the tenant’s name on the water bill to the owner. The district will send out a notice to property owners and tenants of the changes, how to proceed with implementation, and timeline for implementation.

A deposit is required from all tenants when applying for service and are payable by check or cash only.

MSWD customers can readily control their water bill by controlling their consumption. You can find cost details on the cost of water service page and how to read your water bill.

Sewer charges are based on residential, multifamily or business category. Find details on the cost of sewer service.

For both water and sewer service, the monthly fixed charge will apply to all accounts, whether the meter service is active or not. Why? Once connected to the water or sewer system, capacity to service your property must be permanently available. Ongoing maintenance and costs associated with that capacity must be recovered rather than spread to other active rate payers.
