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.

- Monthly. The portal announcement states that a 10% late fee is added after 7:59 a.m. on the 11th of the month.
- Rate structure
- Metered municipal water and wastewater rates under the City rate schedule; the current portal does not expose the complete 2026 residential tiers.
- Wastewater and sewer calculation
- The City code governs water and sewer charges but the current portal does not expose the complete numerical sewer calculation or winter-average rule.
- New-account deposit
- Current portal requires a deposit if no current deposit is on the account after disconnect-day payment; the indexed City code states deposits are applied as a credit after six months with no delinquent notices, shutoffs, or NSF payments. Exact ordinary residential amount is not publicly documented.
