Provider briefing
How this utility’s billing works
PUEBLO BOARD OF WW operates as a public water authority serving Pueblo. Customers should use the provider’s current account-specific bill and official customer-service instructions as the final authority for deadlines, balances, and service requests.
The published water-rate framework is described as Metered usage pricing with a monthly minimum/service charge. Effective January 1, 2026, an inside-city 3/4-inch account has a $15.60 minimum including up to 2,000 gallons, then $3.58 per additional 1,000 gallons; outside-city customers have a higher minimum and volumetric rate.. Bills are generated monthly billing is used for standard residential utility accounts; exact cycle dates vary by route and account., and a typical residential cost reference is For an inside-city 3/4-inch residential account using about 6,000 gallons, the January 2026 schedule implies approximately $29.92 for water: the $15.60 minimum plus four additional 1,000-gallon units at $3.58. This excludes wastewater and stormwater; Pueblo’s January 2026 insert separately reports an average residential water bill of $47.82 across its account population.. These descriptions are useful planning benchmarks; actual charges can change with meter size, usage, sewer averaging, local taxes, drought stages, or account-specific fees.
Wastewater and sewer calculation
The 2026 city wastewater charge is a $26.32 3/4-inch service charge plus $6.14 per 1,000 gallons. Pueblo uses a wastewater base period averaging metered consumption from December 2025 through February 2026, then applies the resulting volume charge from March through the rest of the year; irrigation during the base period may qualify for an adjustment. At 6,000 gallons, wastewater is approximately $63.16 before stormwater.
Meter and infrastructure notes
The reviewed public 2026 materials do not identify AMR, AMI, or a universal residential read calendar. Consumption and wastewater base-period calculations use the recorded meter reads assigned to each account.

Reading this profile
A practical reference for Pueblo
PUEBLO BOARD OF WW is listed here as a public water authority. The profile separates account actions—such as paying a bill or requesting service—from explanatory material about rates, meters, wastewater, leaks, and delinquency.
Because utility rules can vary by account class, meter size, service address, billing date, and local ordinance, treat the published bill and current provider website as the final authority. Use this profile to locate the correct channel and prepare better questions for customer service.
If your issue is urgent, start with the provider’s emergency number or official payment route rather than waiting for an email response. Keep a written record of calls, confirmation numbers, notice dates, and documents you submit.
