Every year, the District reviews the water rates. If the District proposes changes, our customers receive a Proposition 218 notification. If you receive water service through one of these four District Nos. 1 (Moorpark) , 17 (Bell Canyon), 19 (Somis), and 38 (Lake Sherwood) you may click on the appropriate calculator below to estimate the impact of the proposed water rates. You need to have a current copy of your water bill on hand to be able to provide the items required by the calculator.
