Corrected Water Rates and Upcoming Work Session
11/28/2023

The Jersey Village City Council, in its meeting on November 27, 2023, has amended the water rates to reflect the accurate figures from the 2023 Water Rate Study. This action corrects the earlier billing issues caused by clerical errors in the previously adopted rates.
