In October 2020, the Board of Commissioners approved the Gwinnett County 2021 Water and Sewer Rate Resolution. This 10-year rate resolution sets a 4.5% rate increase every other year in odd years. Based on this resolution, water and sewer rates per thousand gallons will increase by 4.5% on January 1, 2025.
For an average household usage of 5,000 gallons per month:

  •  A water-only bill will increase by approximately $1.25 per month.
  •  A combined water and sewer bill will increase by about $3.30 per month.

There will be no increase to the water and sewer base charges.
