NORTH AUBURN, Placer County — Placer County’s Environmental Utilities website lists an approved sewer-rate increase for Sewer Maintenance District 1, North Auburn, with an effective date of July 1, 2026.

The county’s official Sewer Services page links directly to the Approved North Auburn Sewer Rate Increase Notice. The same department publishes separate rate notices for Sheridan and other service areas.

Why the service district matters

Customers should not assume that a rate listed for one county sewer district applies throughout Placer County. Sewer Maintenance District 1 has its own infrastructure, financing and user-fee arrangements. Bills may depend on a property’s connection type, applicable classification and the adopted fee schedule.

How to verify the correct amount

Residents should read the actual adopted rate notice, compare it with their most recent bill and contact the county if the account classification appears inaccurate. The directory confirms that a rate change took effect; it does not establish a single dollar increase for every residence or business.

What to do about a service problem

The department lists a general sewer contact number of 530-889-6846 and an emergency number of 530-886-4913. A billing question should go through the normal customer-service process, while active overflows require appropriate emergency reporting.
