Water Rates temporarily are being returned to pre-drought rates

Due to the high volume of water runoff, LPC is temporarily lowering the water rates to the pre-drought amounts.  See Chart below.  The Board will be monitoring the use closely and will return the rates to drought conservation once the runoff has receded.  Please keep in mind, the State of Utah remains in a drought.  Outdoor water should only occur between the hours of 8:00 p.m. to 10:00 a.m.  Updates will be posted to the website as needed.
