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. Buda's customer guide states that usage is billed monthly and the billing cycle runs approximately from the middle of one month to the middle of the next.
- Rate structure
- Tiered rate structure under the City's official utility code. The current customer guide illustrates a $11.26 base rate plus usage tiers including 6,000 gallons at $3.08 per 1,000 and 5,000 additional gallons at $4.85 per 1,000 in its example; the complete 2026 table should be confirmed through the current code.
- Residential cost reference
- The City's bill example calculates 11,000 gallons as $42.73 in volume charges plus an $11.26 base, for a $53.99 water charge before wastewater and trash. A 5,000–7,000-gallon estimate is therefore approximately $40–$55 water-only depending on the applicable tiers; the current combined total requires the current wastewater and trash schedule.
- Wastewater and sewer calculation
- Buda bills wastewater through the municipal utility system, but the reviewed current customer guide did not expose the complete sewer formula or winter-average method.
- Meter reading
- Usage is billed monthly and the customer guide explains that the cycle runs approximately mid-month to mid-month. The reviewed current sources do not identify AMI/AMR equipment, vendor, transmission interval, or route schedule.
