买了房子后水费怎么算的？

哜咯咙咚呛

请问买了房子后水费怎么算的？应该是都包括在地税里的，这样会不会因为用水多，每年的地税会相应的增加，还是用多少水都是一样的价钱？

为啥叫 花园城市 政府 就是让你把家的前后院的草花 等打理好 看上去 家家户户都美观 ， 其实就是多浇水 草才绿..................所以我们花园城市的居民就没有水费了
水都不要钱了 你家花园要是还影响整个街道美观 那就要罚款了 呵呵

水费在rates里面是fix charge。water charge的变动是根据每年的总capital cost + operation cost然后平坦到ratepayer头上。

有的地方用rain-water，不用water connection的地方，rates里面就没有water charge。urban的rates一般都有water charge。

Water rates

The chch Council charges for water in the rates instalment notice. This is calculated by multiplying the capital value of the property by an amount determined yearly in the annual plan.

Domestic consumers pay the amount on the rates bill only . The Council does not charge domestic users for actual usage, but does monitor excessive use.

Commercial, Industrial users (including schools and churches) and residential properties with three or more units (owned by one person) pay for water in their rates and are invoiced for any excess water usage above the calculated allowance for the reading period.

Details of commercial charges are available from the Water Billing Section of the Financial Services Unit. When a property, that is subject to excess water charges, is sold i.e. a commercial or industrial property, a final reading of the water meter must be made. Contact the Rates Section to arrange this.

Residential Properties are not subject to excess charges at present and do not require a final water meter reading.
Daily water allowances:

These are calculated by using a formula and taking into account variables like the capital value of the property, the cost to supply water to the property per cubic meter and the number of days since the previous reading.

All residential properties within the serviced area are charged in their rates for water. If you have an empty section, these facilities are available and you therefore have to pay the separate rates for water. If you are not connected to the water supply you will be charged a half water rate.
