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
- Residential seasonal billing; December-March bills reflect actual water consumption, while other periods use the City's established billing method.
- Rate structure
- Fixed monthly water and sewer charges by meter size plus volumetric water/sewer charges; stormwater is based on impervious area/equivalent stormwater units.
- Residential cost reference
- For a 5/8-inch meter, 2026 fixed water and sewer fees total $21.05 monthly before usage; exact 5,000-7,000 gallon cost requires current volumetric and stormwater charges.
- Wastewater and sewer calculation
- Minneapolis bills sewer through a fixed meter-size charge plus sewer usage. Winter readings are actual consumption during December-March, supporting the seasonal calculation; stormwater is separately based on impervious area.
- Activation or transfer fee
- A $90 turn-on charge is listed; no separate account-transfer amount was exposed.
