The notes below may document a route, rule, or explicit public-information limit. General preparation steps are not represented as utility policy.
- Emergency reporting route
- For water emergencies after hours or on holidays, call South Pasadena Police Department Dispatch at (626) 403-7297. During regular service hours, water service requests use (626) 403-7370 and billing questions use MuniBilling (877) 583-7933 or City Finance (626) 403-7250.
- Leak-adjustment policy
- The reviewed South Pasadena pages do not publish a guaranteed private-leak credit formula, repair-receipt deadline, historic-average calculation, or lifetime cap. Customers should stop and repair the leak, preserve readings and invoices, and request a prompt account review through MuniBilling and the City Water Division.
- Utility assistance program
- The reviewed pages do not identify a senior, disabled-veteran, or fixed low-income water credit. Customers facing hardship should ask MuniBilling and City Finance about current payment arrangements and any assistance available under the amended 2026 discontinuation ordinance.
- State and federal aid connection
- The retrieved South Pasadena pages do not publish a dedicated LIHWAP intake workflow or charity tie-in. Customers should contact City Finance before shutoff and check California’s current Low Income Household Water Assistance Program at https://www.csd.ca.gov/lihwap.
