After more than a decade of holding water and wastewater rates steady, the city of Buckeye is reviewing its utility rates to ensure the continued delivery of safe, reliable and sustainable service.
Rising costs for operations, materials and water supplies have made it increasingly difficult to maintain existing rates without impacting system quality and reliability. To guide this important effort, Buckeye City Council has established the 2025 Citizen Water and Wastewater Rates Committee (WRC), a group of Buckeye residents working alongside city staff to review data, evaluate rate structures and provide transparent, community-based recommendations to the City Council.
Residents are encouraged to learn more, ask questions and share feedback at one of three public meetings this November, where the committee and city staff will present their findings and recommendations:
Nov. 3, 6 – 8 p.m. | Sun City Festival Fire Station 704 | 27360 W. Wagner Complex Dr
Nov. 5, 6 – 8 p.m. | Buckeye City Hall Council Chambers | 530 E. Monroe Ave
Nov. 6, 6 – 8 p.m. | Sundance HOA Ballroom | 930 S. Sundance Pkwy
These meetings provide residents with a direct opportunity to engage with the process and help shape the future of Buckeye’s water and wastewater services. For more information, visit buckeyeaz.gov/waterrates.

PHOENIX, AZ (October 16, 2025) – Teravalis™, a Howard Hughes community, proudly announces the official grand opening of its 37,000-acre master planned community in Buckeye with a public celebration, Floreo Fest at Teravalis, on Saturday, November 15, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Floreo Fest at Teravalis—named after the community’s first village—will showcase the vibrant lifestyle residents can expect, with activities spread throughout the community’s parks, model homes, and gathering spaces. The free, family friendly event will feature:
Model Home Tours: Explore 20 model homes by seven award-winning homebuilders—Century Communities, Courtland Communities, DRB Homes, KB Home, Lennar, Meritage Homes, and New Home Co.—with select homes available for immediate purchase.

Children’s Activities: Interactive experiences including flower pressing, custom coloring book stations, bounce houses, train rides and more will be present, including the unique pollinator themed play equipment at both Floreo and Windrose park.
Just three years after its groundbreaking announcement, Floreo Fest at Teravalis marks a major milestone for one of the most anticipated community developments in Arizona. Rooted in the Howard Hughes Communities™ legacy of thoughtful community building, Teravalis is designed around the principles of lifestyle, innovation, sustainability and the arts, with activities at the celebration honoring those founding values.
“Floreo Fest is more than a grand opening—it’s a celebration of a dream taking shape just west of the White Tank Mountains. In a very short time , Teravalis has transformed from vision to reality, with model homes now open, Echo Community Center under way , homes sold, and a community full of life beginning to unfold,” says Charley Freericks, Arizona Region President at Howard Hughes Communities. “This is a historic moment not only for Teravalis but for the entire West Valley, as we set the stage for generations of families, businesses, and cultural experiences to thrive here. We are eager to welcome visitors and future residents to come celebrate with us and glimpse the future we are building together.”
Floreo Fest is generously supported by Centric Fiber, Church of Sun Valley, Kompan, US Bank, and West Valley Rock.
