Source: City of Livermore. Current Service Charges. The City Council adopted its current rates by ordinance on May 11, 2020. The single-family residential sewer service charge is currently $61.88 per month ($742.56 per year) effective July 1, 2021, and the commercial rate ranges from $4.55/CCF to $10.55/CCF. Current Connection Charges. Livermore’s current connection charge for single family residential connections is $6,876. Connection charges for commercial connections are calculated based on a formula that takes into account flow and characteristics of flow. Livermore has an ordinance which prohibits the issuance of building permits if mandatory water rationing is imposed on residents of Livermore. If this were to occur, there would be an adverse effect on the amounts collected by Livermore from sewer connection charges. However, water rationing is only contemplated in the highest stages of the Livermore Water Shortage Contingency Plan corresponding to required demand reductions of between 35% and 50% of normal demand. Livermore has never needed to enact water rationing to meet demands during even the most severe droughts experienced to date. Comparative Rates.
