IMPORTANT DATE TO REMEMBER
15th --- BILLS ARE DUE
The latest rate increase was approved by the Board of Directors at the May 21, 2024 Regular Board Meeting. Rate increases have been designed to recover a loss in revenue due to inflation and increased cost of goods/services, to meet projected buget costs and for infrastructure upgrades within the system.
RAWS Board of Directors have been continuing to strive for more efficiency, and to absorb and realign costs. While Board of Directors work diligently to keep the cost down, these increases are necessary to maintain and make improvements to our current system and to remain in compliance with Texas Water Development Board Debt Service requirements.
As a reminder, you are responsible for paying your bill whether your bill is delivered electronically or by regular mail. Also, it is your responsibility to inform RAWS of any address changes (email or mailing), as well as any credit card/banking info that you wish to keep on file. RAWS is not responsible for unpaid bills due to these reasons.
You are responsible to pay your bill whether it was received or not. Please call our office to verify account status.
