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. Nicholasville utility-billing information states that bills are due by the 10th of each month, with account reads affecting the utility-bill components.
- Rate structure
- Monthly minimum-plus-volume tariff. The adopted schedule effective September 2025 lists a 3/4-inch service charge of $6.09, $5.12 per 1,000 gallons for the first 10,000 gallons, and $4.97 above 10,000; a later July 2026 schedule is identified in the City ordinance but its complete current values were not exposed in the reviewed text.
- Residential cost reference
- Using the published September 2025 tariff, approximately $31.69 per month for 5,000 gallons ($6.09 service charge plus five $5.12 thousand-gallon units), before sewer and any later July 2026 tariff adjustment.
- Wastewater and sewer calculation
- Nicholasville bills water and wastewater utility charges through its municipal utility system. The reviewed wastewater rule states that a 10% penalty is added to each delinquent user-charge bill and that water and/or wastewater service may be disconnected when a bill is more than eleven days in default; the complete residential sewer rate table was not exposed.
- Meter reading
- Utility bills depend on water-meter reads, including reads supplied by Jessamine County Water District No. 1 for certain wholesale-related accounts. The reviewed official pages do not identify local AMR/AMI technology.
- New-account deposit
- A water utility deposit of $25.00 is listed in the City code. The code states that a deposit refund is reflected as a bill credit beginning with the next billing period after a good payment history is established; the reviewed text does not define the exact number of months.
