Utility Information and Rates
Utility rates and charges are evaluated yearly and updated annually per City Commission adoption. On August 15, the City Commission passed a sewer and stormwater increase effective October 1, 2023.
Utility fees support the City of Largo’s continued efforts to increase the capacity and reliability of sanitation, water resources, and stormwater utilities. Fees also support the operations, maintenance, and infrastructure of those utilities. The City of Largo is currently working on a multi-year capital improvement plan and continues to sustain vital aging public infrastructure.
