Rates & Billing | Water Rates
CCWSA strives to provide affordable water and sewer services to residents of Cherokee County and surrounding areas. CCWSA rates are devised to cover the actual cost of providing high-quality drinking water to our customers. These costs include on-going operations and maintenance costs, reading the meter, preparing and issuing the bill, as well as capital improvements that expand the system as necessary.
CCWSA is a public, not-for-profit municipality and does not receive any revenue from the county or city government. Therefore, we make every effort to operate in the most efficient and cost-effective manner while continuing to focus on superior quality and service.
