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. Tangipahoa states that community water meters are read each month, and its residential rates provide monthly minimum and usage examples.
- Rate structure
- Uniform residential minimum plus volume charge. The District’s current publicly readable rate page still identifies rates effective April 1, 2022: $18.00 monthly minimum including 3,000 gallons, then $3.28 per 1,000 gallons above 3,000. The 2026 page did not expose a newer rate schedule, so those figures are preserved as the latest official schedule rather than labeled as a new 2026 adoption.
- Residential cost reference
- The latest official readable schedule gives a 5,000-gallon example of $24.56 per month, composed of the $18.00 minimum plus two 1,000-gallon units at $3.28. Exact 2026 pricing is not publicly documented because the District page continues to identify the April 1, 2022 schedule.
- Wastewater and sewer calculation
- Tangipahoa Water District may collect parish Sewerage District No. 1 charges on the joint water bill for customers in the sewer district. Parish ordinance treats the water and sewer charges as one bill and authorizes water disconnection for delinquency of either component; the reviewed water rate page does not publish a current sewer calculation or winter-average method.
- Meter reading
- Tangipahoa states that community water meters are read each month. The reviewed pages do not identify AMI, AMR, radio communication, or a fixed route-reader technology. Customers can use the District’s meter-reading guidance to read their own register.
