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
- Quarterly usage basis; the Town’s rates are explicitly calculated on quarterly water usage in CCF.
- Rate structure
- Increasing quarterly usage tiers measured in CCF. Effective July 1, 2026, water is $8.77 per CCF for 0-15 CCF, $9.23 for 16-40 CCF, and $10.82 for 41+ CCF; sewer tiers are $9.42, $10.03, and $11.52.
- Residential cost reference
- At 5,000-7,000 gallons per month, the quarterly equivalent is approximately 20-28 CCF, which falls across the first two published tiers. The reviewed page does not provide a fixed base charge or complete household total, so the exact monthly average is not publicly documented.
- Wastewater and sewer calculation
- Sewer is billed from the same quarterly CCF usage tiers as water, with a separate per-CCF charge. A residence without municipal water is charged a flat $310 per quarter for sewer usage effective July 1, 2025.
