And here’s some more good news. Tampa Bay Water recently announced that there would be NO rate increase for water for the fourth consecutive year.
While local governments must add to that charge to further disinfect, pump and deliver the water, drinking water remains a great value. Need further proof? Just check out the graphic above.
