Providing more sustainable and equitable outcomes for the Lafayette community
In 2022 our region was looking at record breaking heat and drought conditions. Spring of 2023 has produced more water than we have the capacity to store in reservoirs for use in future dry years.
Maintaining reliable water services for Lafayette residents is a top priority, but unpredictable supply and demand due to climate change requires investments in storage, maintenance, and other capital projects.
We understand that any rate increase impacts users. The City is committed to protecting affordability of residents’ indoor water use and ensuring that growth pays its own way
