Important Notice: 2024 Water Rate Update

Feb 9, 2024

Dear Irrigators,

We would like to take this time to inform you of an important update regarding water rates for 2024.

Due to increased costs associated with operating expenses and infrastructure maintenance, the Board of Directors has set the water rates at $28 per acre for the 2024 irrigation season.

We understand that any increase in expenses can impact your operations, and we want to assure you that this decision was not made lightly. Our priority is to ensure the sustainability and reliability of our water supply system for all SMRID customers.

If you have any questions or concerns regarding this rate adjustment, we encourage you to attend the upcoming Annual General Meeting scheduled for April 3rd, 2024 (starting at 1:30pm) at the Agrifood Hub located at 3401 Parkside Drive South in Lethbridge, AB.

Sincerely,

The SMRID Board Directors
