Billing and account research from public material
Provider-specific research notes are displayed separately from fields that contain only an unavailable-information marker. Read qualifiers in each note and verify current account terms with the provider.
- Billing frequency
- Monthly; the County pamphlet describes residential water and sewer rates per thousand gallons and monthly billing information.
- Rate structure
- Residential water uses a base rate plus tiered per-1,000-gallon charges. Effective January 1, 2026, Tier One is 0-8,000 gallons at $10.95, Tier Two 8,001-16,000 at $12.04, and Tier Three above 16,000 at $13.16, plus a $9.80 base rate. The pamphlet's example confirms the rate arithmetic.
- Residential cost reference
- The County's 2026 pamphlet gives a 6,000-gallon example of $75.50 for water and $61.07 for sewer, or approximately $136.57 combined before other charges. This includes a $9.80 water base, Tier One water pricing, a $4.25 sewer base, and $9.47 sewer per 1,000 gallons.
- Wastewater and sewer calculation
- Paulding sewer is billed from metered water usage using a $4.25 base rate plus $9.47 per 1,000 gallons. The 2026 example for 6,000 gallons is $61.07. Customers should ask the County about irrigation or other usage that may enter the meter but not the sanitary sewer because the public pamphlet does not describe a winter-average formula.
- Meter reading
- Water and sewer charges are calculated from metered gallons and billed monthly. The reviewed 2026 pamphlet does not identify an AMI/AMR vendor, remote-read interval, or fixed monthly read date.
- New-account deposit
- The application checklist requires a deposit for new water/sewer service, with the system able to use it for outstanding bills and refund the unused portion after the account closes. The reviewed public 2026 pamphlet does not state one universal residential dollar amount; the exact deposit depends on the account/application.
