Water Rates

From The Hanover Department of Public Works

Water Rates are set by the Board of Selectmen based on recommendations of the Director of Public Works and Town Manager.  The rates cover the full cost of the water enterprise including treatment costs, distribution expenses, administrative exenses, debt service and indirect costs.  The  link below contains a PDF of the rates that were approved by the Selectmen in October of 2015.

While it is easy to compare water rates between communities, it is really a comparison between apples and oranges as all communities are different.  The document below provides additional information about Hanover's water rates, including detailed instructions on how to calculate your water bill and more information on the cost of water in Hanover.  We invite you to review the information and send us any additional questions you may have.
