Forsyth County water customers will be seeing the new tiered water rates on their next bills.

The new rate structure features a variable rate corresponding to the amount of usage and is aimed at conserving water. Sewer rates are not impacted by this change.

The Georgia Environmental Protection Division (EPD) is requiring all counties to implement a water rate structure that promotes water conservation. Those interested in calculating their bill amount under the new rates can visit www.forsythco.com/ratecalculator.
