Reminder: New Water Rates Take Effect March 1, 2026

• March 2, 2026 | Category: Customer Service, Your Water

Rate modifications approved December 2025 go into effect March 1, 2026; they average 13.6% for single-family residential customers in Medford with a ¾” meter (for average monthly usage of 10,000 gallons, these customers will see their monthly bill go from $37.58 to $42.67). Even after modifications, our water rates are still low compared with similar communities in our area, statewide, and nationwide.

For more information on what water rates pay for and why modifications are necessary, as well as FAQs and full rate schedules for all customer groups, click here.

Due to these modifications, your March billing will be prorated to reflect both new and prior charges. Call us at 541-774-2430 if you have any questions.
