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. LCUB’s water policy defines the service address as the address shown on monthly bills, and its Equal Pay Plan budgets and pays the utility bill each month.
- Wastewater and sewer calculation
- LCUB operates a separate wastewater department serving approximately 6,500 customers and publishes a wastewater rate schedule; the reviewed text does not expose the current household sewer formula or a winter-average calculation.
- Meter reading
- LCUB may profile meters and download hourly water-consumption history for enforcement and operational analysis; the policy says advanced metering technology may be added for real-time analysis, but it does not identify a current AMI vendor or universal schedule.
- New-account deposit
- A single $100 service deposit is assessed for residential service under LCUB’s sign-up instructions. Development connections also carry separate tap, capital-reserve, and maintenance fees.
- Activation or transfer fee
- $25 service charge for each activated service level, including water and/or wastewater. A standard residential 3/4-inch water tap is $1,250, with a $145 capital-reserve fee and $29 maintenance fee for a published example.
