Sewer & Water Rates and Payments

Gunnison County operates five Divisions within the Gunnison County Sewer and Water District, including Dos Rios, Antelope Hills, North Gunnison, Somerset and Tomichi. Rate Schedules Available: - 2026 Rate Schedule (PDF) - 2025 Rate Schedule (PDF) - 2023 Rate Schedule (PDF) - 2022 Rate Schedule (PDF) 2025 Utility Rate Study: The Gunnison County Sewer and Water District functions as an "enterprise fund" within the Gunnison County budget. As such, each division in the district that receives water and sewer services is expected to cover the costs of providing services to that division via utility fees. A utility rate study is conducted periodically to ensure that utility rates are financially adequate, legally defensible, and equitable, while also supporting the long-term reliability of the system. A professional study provides the analytical basis for determining how existing rates should be adjusted and how costs are allocated among customers. A rate study for an existing utility includes review of past expenses and projecting known, future expenditures; reviewing rate equity for cost centers; incorporating any regulatory requirements and focuses on explaining the recommended course in a transparent way. The study is necessary to maintain the financial stability of the utility and avoid deferred maintenance or unplanned rate adjustments. View the 2025 Rate Study, Executive Summary, and Board of County Commissioners Presentation here. Tap Connection Fees: Please contact the Finance Office for information regarding current tap fees, as the fee is dependent upon a number of factors including water supply size and service location. Set Up Utility Service: Water and sewer service fees are attached to the real property served. Generally, your new service is set up during the closing process, when charges are appropriately prorated and a deed is supplied to the Finance Office. If you have obtained a property through foreclosure, have not utilized the services of a closing agent, or would like to verify the transfer has taken or will take place, please contact our office. Renters: Gunnison County does not allow anyone but legal owners to change the billing address for sewer and/or water bills since unpaid charges have the potential to become a tax lien upon the property. We generally recommend that lessors bill the charges to the lessee as a part of the rent. If you wish to have future bills sent to a secondary party, please complete a Change of Billing Responsibility Authorization (PDF). The Authorization requires an original signature and can be mailed to: Gunnison County Finance, 200 E. Virginia Avenue, Gunnison, CO 81230 Pay Your Bill Online: You may pay your bill online by visiting our online payment interface. Automatic Recurring Payments: Unfortunately, Gunnison County does not currently offer this service. The insurance costs and legal requirements to maintain private, financial information are excessive and the relatively small user base served does not justify the added costs and risks to our users. We are monitoring options as they are developed as we are interested in providing this service to our customers sometime in the future.
