Water Pricing
User pays water pricing was introduced in the Tweed Shire in 2002.
Properties connected to the town water supply are charged for every 1,000 litres of water consumed.
User pays is a key component of the demand management strategy as it encourages water conservation - the less you use the less you pay.
Listed to the right is a history of water prices since user pays was introduced.
