MCWD Releases New Capacity Fee Study
Capacity (Connection) Fee Study Draft Report is available for review.

Mammoth Lakes, California –

Periodically, the Mammoth Community Water District (MCWD/District) conducts a study to evaluate whether the capacity (connection) fees charged for new or expanded water and sewer services properly reflect the cost of the service provided. District staff recently identified the fees currently in place that need to be updated to accurately reflect the asset value and the number of customers utilizing the system.

In June 2024, the District began work with a consultant, Robert D. Niehaus, Inc. (RDN), to evaluate current fees and make recommendations for appropriate changes to our capacity/connection fee structure. The draft report from RDN is now available for the public to review by visiting the MCWD website at: https://www.mcwd.dst.ca.us/capacity-fee-study

The MCWD Board of Directors will consider adopting these revised fees at a Regular Board Meeting to be held on Thursday, January 23, 2025. If you have any additional questions, please contact the District at 760.934.2596.
