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. Newark states that all water, sewer, and stormwater bills are based on a monthly billing cycle.
- Rate structure
- 2026 monthly water consumption pricing in 100-cubic-foot consumption units: the first 350 consumption units are $4.75 per 100 cubic feet and the balance is $2.04 per 100 cubic feet; the published minimum monthly water charge is $14.25. One consumption unit equals 100 cubic feet or 748 gallons. Sewer adds a $9.33 administrative charge, $2.36 commodity charge, and a class-dependent debt charge; stormwater is $8.05 per ERU monthly in 2026.
- Residential cost reference
- Approximately $69 per month for about 5,000 gallons when combining the published water consumption charge, residential sewer administrative/commodity/debt charges, and one $8.05 stormwater ERU; the exact amount varies with the bill’s minimum rules and sewer debt tier.
- Wastewater and sewer calculation
- Residential sewer is billed monthly from a $9.33 account charge, $2.36 per 100 cubic feet commodity charge, and $1.96 per 100 cubic feet debt charge for four or more consumption units; the City’s page also shows a $17.52 sewer minimum for low consumption. Water, sewer, and stormwater appear on the consolidated monthly bill.
- Meter reading
- Automated Meter Reading. Newark’s AMR system uses a battery-powered meter transmitter, solar-powered data collectors, and a network computer; it can receive readings daily and supports more accurate billing and unusual-consumption alerts.
