What are the Benefits of Carted Trash Service?
Water and sewer rates pay for the cost of operating the utilities, including personnel, maintenance, water resources, administration, debt service, and capital construction.
Water and sewer rates for residential and non-residential customers were last adjusted in 2019. In 2021, a new rate structure was established and the new billing will begin October of 2022. Costs are adjusted to maintain the infrastructure for quality, reliability, and costs associated with access to safe drinking water.
All water & sewer customers of Haltom City
To align with industry best standards for utility billing methods
New rates go into effect on October 1, 2022
A rate structure and sample billing calculation is linked and embeded below, in PDF format.
The former billing rate method utilized 3 groups (A, B, C) defined by the number of units served at the location. Customers in each group were charged a base rate and consumption depending on the group they were in.
*Note: The sampling of comparable cities done during the rate study found no other comporable cities with this system of billing.
The new billing method utilizes a tiered pricing structure. In this structure, users pay a base rate by meter size including the first 1,000 gallons of water. Additional charges are incurred based on the amount of water used if it exceeds 1,000 gallons.
In short, the more water you use, the more you pay.
Water conservation isn’t just good for the environment— it can help you save money on your utilities!

The new Haltom City Fire Station #3, located at 5011 Old Denton Rd., is now in operation and is housing shifts. Expected to be the busiest fire station in the city, Station #3 will house eight firefighters, one front line engine, one ladder truck and one reserve engine
Architecturally, the new fire station brings state of the art facilities to north Haltom City. A cost efficient solution, the new building was constructed using pre-engineered steel framing systems. The environmentally efficient envelope enclose the functional spaces within a masonry and stucco skin.
The roof is constructed of an insulated metal panel system that provides an energy code compliant system that sandwiches 6” rigid foam between metal interior and exterior skins, leaving clean surfaces on both sides and eliminating the need for secondary interior ceiling systems (which age more rapidly).
The new Station #3 replaces the now decommissioned station that was under the IH820 water tower.
On Friday, April 8, 2022 Haltom City officials along with representatives, students and staff from Haltom High School unveiled the newly renamed street Buffalo Way. The previous name for this street, which runs east and west and is just south of the high school off of Haltom Road, was Fossil Ridge Circle.
Haltom City Police Corporal Jason Michlitsch initiated the idea for the name change and presented it to Mayor Pro Tem Lin Thompson. The name change was then approved by the City Council. Corporal Michlitsch thought having this intersection, where Haltom Road and Buffalo Way cross, would be a great representation of the school and community coming together.
