All,
On October 18, 2022, the Henderson City Council adopted Ordinance No. 3912 which amends Henderson Municipal Code Section 14.18.045 - West Henderson Phase 1 Water Backbone Infrastructure Rates. This action was taken to address shortfalls in the collection of revenues from the assessment of West Henderson Phase 1 Water Backbone Infrastructure rates, significant reductions in water usage anticipated from future developments within West Henderson, and the initiation of the Southern Nevada Water Authority Horizon Lateral project which have prompted the COH to revise the backbone water infrastructure planning for West Henderson. The COH has concluded the backbone infrastructure should be constructed in a single phase by the city and that the rates charged to projects benefitting from that infrastructure need to be increased.
Effective January 1, 2023, all new projects that the COH determines will receive a benefit from existing or future water backbone infrastructure planned, designed, constructed, and/or financed for the West Henderson 2630 Pressure Zone or for the 2760 Pressure Zone shall be charged and pay the West Henderson 2630/2760 Pressure Zone Water Infrastructure Rates.
West Henderson Water Backbone Infrastructure Rate Increase for 2024
Per HMC 14.18.045, the city manager may adjust the WH 2630 PZ water infrastructure rate by up to 15% once each year and may adjust the WH 2760 PZ water infrastructure rate by up to 10% once each calendar year. Approved rates effective as of January 1, 2024, are listed below:
