Sewer Rate Change
The Trinity River Authority (TRA) provides sewer treatment services for 98% of Tarrant County, including Southlake. Rising treatment costs will result in a 10% increase for Southlake customers. The maximum residential sewer charge will be $97.78 per month.
CWD Rate Change
As part of the City’s five-year contract with Community Waste Disposal (CWD), rates are reviewed annually to keep up with fuel, disposal, and inflationary costs.
