Town of Comox Water Metering Program
Register or Log in for Online Service
In 2010, Town Council implemented a water metering project to help identify water leaks and reduce the cost of water for all Town of Comox residents. The metering project also makes it possible to meter and invoice commercial and residential properties for actual use.
Properties that receive a meter may continue paying the flat rate water fee or they may volunteer to be billed by the meter by submitting a form by April 15th - see the Frequently Asked Questions section below.
Any property with a meter (billed by flat rate or meter) will be charged at the fee identified in Comox Water Rates and Regulations Bylaw 529 (see Schedule “A”, Part II – General Consumer Rates) for every cubic meter (m3) used above the annual billing threshold of 450 m3 (450,000 litres) per year. This threshold is approximately twice the average use of a metered home in Comox. The purpose of a threshold is to encourage water conservation and help recover the cost of water used by high-use customers.
