Utility rate increase to take effect in Peoria on first day of 2023
Posted
The city of Peoria is reminding residents that a utility rate increase will take effect Jan. 1, 2023.
For the average residential customer, the total utility bill will increase by approximately 2.8% or $2.45 per month. The breakdown of monthly rate increases are as follows: $1.55 for water and sewer (based on ¾-inch meter and 10,000 gallon water usage) and $0.90 for garbage and recycle.
For nonresidential customers, rate increases vary based on several factors such as meter size, usage, flow-based EPA charge, container size, and number of pickups.
The Peoria City Council approved the new rates earlier this year.
To view the complete rate schedule, visit www.peoriaaz.gov/customerservice, scroll down to, and click on, “Utility Rates and Charges 2023” (PDF).
For questions about the rate changes, call 623-773-7160 or email customerservice@peoriaaz.gov, Monday through Thursday from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m.
