However, it <br />should be noted that most of the cities shown in the chart that have lower utility rates, happen to have <br />much higher property tax rates. This is an important distinction because again, each City employs a <br />different philosophy in how it funds the direct and indirect costs of providing services. <br />Roseville's philosophy is to ensure that all indirect costs are reflected in the water and sewer rates. <br />This results in higher water and sewer rates. This also means that we don't have as much indirect costs <br />being supported by the property tax or assessments. <br />This can be somewhat reflected in the chart below which combines property taxes and water and sewer <br />charges for a typical single - family home. <br />7 <br />
