Rates & Fees

The following rates and fees have been established by the Board of Directors of the Clarks Branch Water Association and are effective immediately until revised.
Last revision – April 2026

Flat Minimum Monthly Rates

  • Residential: $110.00 for 1st 5,000 gallons
  • County Hardship: $110.00 for 1st 7,250 gallons

Assessment Fees

  • Water Tank Expansion Project – $25/mo
    • This $25 monthly assessment was added to member bills March 2026 and goes directly toward repayment of the loan portion of the Water Tank Expansion Project over a 30-year term. Grant funding managed by the board covered nearly 50% of the project costs, helping minimize the financial impact to members while still allowing us to complete this major upgrade.

  • $24.00 per 1,000 gallons for usage between 10,001 and 20,000 gallons per month.
