IPART is seeking feedback on its draft decisions on the prices that the Central Coast Council as a Water Supply Authority (CCC Water) can charge for its water, wastewater and other water-related services.

IPART has released its Draft Report on 15 March 2022. Its draft decisions recognise the need to invest in quality water services in the Central Coast. These draft decisions are accompanied by a focus on improvements to CCC Water’s performance and accountability for that performance.

Under IPART’s draft prices, the combined annual bill for a typical household would increase by around $200 on 1 July 2022. The bill would then increase by around $49 a year, before inflation, until 2025-26.

IPART considers it is crucial that CCC Water is transparent about how it spends the money and how it would improve its services to the community. IPART is seeking feedback from the community on how CCC Water could be held to account by providing better information to the community.
