Understanding the Utility Users Tax (UUT)

What is a Utility Users Tax (UUT)?

The Utility Users Tax (UUT) is a small local tax applied to utility services such as electricity, gas, water, sewer, cable, and telephone (landline and mobile). It is collected monthly on utility bills and must be approved by local voters.

More than 160 cities and public agencies across California have adopted a UUT to help fund essential services.
