How do I fill a pool using City of Livonia water? How do I calculate the cost?

Pools may be filled with a hose from the regular outdoor house tap, following guidelines about water use restrictions during hot days. There is no separate water fee or water without a sewage charge available. We do not offer hydrant usage for pool filling.


To determine the cost of filling a pool using City water, divide the number of gallons it takes to fill the pool by 750 (the number of gallons in 100 cubic feet, or one unit of water), then multiply that number by the current water and sewer rate (2022 rate: $5.79). 


Gallons ÷ 750 = cubic feet × $5.79 = total cost of filling pool
