Desert Gold RV Park appeals Carlin billing; council tables appeal and delays water-code changes

Dec 11, 2024

Owners of Desert Gold RV Park appealed Carlin's per‑pad billing policy, arguing metered billing would be fairer and requesting retroactive meter billing to May 2023; council members agreed the appeal and proposed water-code amendments require further legal and policy review and unanimously tabled the appeal.

The full story

Daisy Uribe and counsel Zach Gerber told the City Council that Desert Gold RV Park was being billed per pad rather than per installed meter, producing disproportionately high charges. Uribe said her analysis showed the park was paying "nine times more than a local hotel" and that 95% of the park’s bill was fixed service fees; she stated the park had paid to install two water meters so it could be billed on consumption.
