<h1>Grover Beach seeking 112% water, sewer rate increase</h1>
<h5>September 14, 2023 </h5>

<p>In an attempt to deal with rising costs and the need for capital improvements, Grover Beach is proposing a 112% increase in water and sewer rates.</p>
<p>At its meeting on Sept. 5, a consultant recommended the Grover Beach City Council raise their rates to cover the cost of Central Coast Blue, a recycled water project designed to establish a dependable water supply for residents and businesses of Grover Beach, Arroyo Grande and Pismo Beach. The city is also in need of critical sewer system upgrades.</p>
<p>At the current rates, Grover Beach will fall $2 million short of its share of Central Coast Blue costs and other water and wastewater obligations beginning in 2024, with the projected deficit increasing in subsequent years.</p>
<p>“Preserving our water resources and sustaining our infrastructure remains a pressing obligation for our community,” said Grover Beach Mayor Karen Bright. “The proposed rate adjustments are integral to securing the sustained fulfillment of our City&#8217;s critical infrastructure demands well into the future.”</p>
<p>City staff is proposing a 19.7% annual water and sewer rate increase for four years, along with a 4% increase in the fifth year.</p>
<p>The Grover Beach City Council will initiate the Proposition 218 public noticing process on Sept. 25. Subsequently, a public hearing will be held on Nov. 13 for the council to adopt the new rate structure.</p>
