Drought Rates

10 Year Capital Improvement Plan

In 2021, the Centennial Water board of directors adopted a Drought Response Plan. The plan is designed to maximize available water supplies and reduce water use during times of water shortage caused by drought. As part of the plan, drought rates were established and are now adopted during the normal budget process at the end of each year.

Drought pricing may be implemented as part of a drought response or declaration by the board of directors. Drought pricing is designed to increase awareness of the drought’s severity and provide a motivation for customers to reduce water use, which will help meet water-use reduction targets through pricing signals. Drought pricing is different from the regular rate structures for water service in that it is temporary in nature.
