Coconut Creek residents will see their water bills increase beginning June 1.
The city implemented a 3.4 percent adjustment to water and wastewater rates to align with the Broward County wholesale rate increase that took effect in October 2025. According to city information, this adjustment is necessary to cover higher county costs, support system maintenance, fund infrastructure improvements, and comply with regulatory requirements.
Coconut Creek does not operate its own water or wastewater treatment plants. It contracts with the county to purchase water at a reduced sale-for-resale rate and to provide wastewater treatment services. The city is responsible for maintaining and upgrading the local water and wastewater infrastructure that serves residents, including storage tanks, booster stations, water lines, fire hydrants, and valves, according to city information.
Additionally, a major portion of the city’s annual utility costs involves purchasing water from the county, wastewater treatment services, and the maintenance and improvement of local infrastructure.
Broward County sets wholesale water and wastewater rates that help fund the operation, maintenance, and long-term investments needed for regional treatment facilities, according to city information.
