The San Diego City Council approved what they call a pass-through rate increase for their water that would go into effect at the start of the new year.
The city says we purchase roughly 90 percent of our water from the water authority. Every year the authority increases rates due to maintenance, operations, and water costs from metropolitan water districts.
Tindall represents single-family residents who are customers of San Diego in a class action lawsuit against the city. During public hearing, the city addressed the case, saying they were filing an appeal saying they will protect their method of charging higher rates to the high-end users.
