OAK PARK — At its June 27 meeting, the Triunfo Water & Sanitation District (TWSD) board voted to extend its $15 per month water credit to qualifying potable water customers and to continue rebate supplements for customers purchasing water conservation appliances and devices. The district serves nearly 14,000 Oak Park residential and business potable water users.
To receive the $15 per month credit through July 2023, Oak Park customers must be enrolled in the California Alternate Rates for Energy (CARE) program or meet an annual income threshold of $36,620 (for a one or two-person household). The discount was first offered in 2020. Currently, over 50 customers participate in the water credit program.
The board also voted to continue supplemental rebates on water conservation appliances and devices. These rebates are in addition to those currently offered by the Metropolitan Water District (MWD) and Calleguas Municipal Water District. TWSD provides extra rebate amounts for high-efficiency toilets and clothes washers, smart irrigation controllers and rain barrels. All rebates are coordinated through MWD.

“These are difficult times for all of us as we try to make every drop of water count,” says Leon Shapiro, TWSD board chair. “TWSD is committed to working with our customers to achieve significant water use reductions and help those who are financially struggling.”
