Understanding Utility Fees
Utility fees are changing in 2026 -- you will likely
see an increase in your monthly bill.
Utility fees fund essential services like drinking water, wastewater
treatment, stormwater systems, and waste collection. These
services rely on a mix of City operations and regional systems.
Most of the 2026 water and wastewater rate changes reflect
costs set by external service providers: Arrow Utilities and the
Capital Region Southwest Water Services Commission. The City
collects these fees through utility bills to pay for the services and
infrastructure required to deliver reliable water and wastewater
service to Leduc.
The City has also adjusted its own utility rates to ensure local
systems remain safe, well-maintained, and able to support our
growing community.
2026 Utility Fee Changes
The amounts below show how utility rates used to calculate your bill have
changed from 2025 to 2026.
Utility

Usage rate: 20¢ per cubic meter
Wastewater
Fixed rate: 20¢ per month

Your utility bill shows total charges only and does not break out individual
rate components (fixed rate vs. usage rate). Actual bill impacts vary
depending on water use.
These updates help ensure:
- Clean, safe drinking water
- Reliable wastewater and stormwater systems
- Ongoing maintenance of critical infrastructure
- Long-term sustainability of utility services
Help Manage Your Utility Bill
Reducing the amount of water you use can help lower your
utility bill. Small changes can make a difference:
- Fix leaking taps and toilets
- Run full loads of laundry and dishes
- Turn off taps while brushing teeth
- Use water-efficient fixtures and appliances
