California AB2180 allows local agencies to allocate water service costs proportionally among parcels using reasonable methods.

California AB2180 amends the Government Code to allow local agencies to allocate the cost of water service proportionally among parcels using any reasonable method. This includes costs from water sources, facilities operation, maintenance, construction, and peak demand contributions. Agencies can establish tiered rates without needing a cost-based justification for tier breakpoints. The bill also allows agencies to impose uniform or tiered rates based on common characteristics like land use and meter size.
