NEWS RELEASE: Commission approves Gem State Water application to change rates
BOISE (May 26, 2023) ā The Idaho Public Utilities Commission has approved an application
from Gem State Water to change the rates it charges customers.
Gem State Water asked for approval to change the monthly rates it charges to provide water
service to customers based on the diameter of their water meter, how much water they use and
the water system they belong to. For example, Spirit Lake East customers who have a one-inch
meter (including customers formerly of the Lynnwood Estates Subdivision), will see a monthly
increase from $25.55 to $35.00. Bar Circle āSā customers (including customers formerly of
Diamond Bar), will see a decrease from $41.00 per month to $35.00 per month. Customers who
have larger water meters will pay more than those with smaller meters.
The monthly charge covers the use of a certain number of gallons. If customers use additional
water, their bill will increase. The amount of the increase depends on which water system
customers are a part of.
