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.
- Rate structure
- Monthly metered increasing-block water rates with a fixed meter charge. For residential consumption, the published schedule charges $5.06 per 1,000 gallons for 1,000-10,000 gallons, $6.74 for 10,001-20,000, $10.25 for 20,001-30,000, and $12.82 above 30,000; a 5/8-inch meter has a $19.91 base charge and larger meters have separate bases.
- Residential cost reference
- At 5,000 gallons, the published 5/8-inch residential water charge is approximately $40.15 before wastewater and other charges ($19.91 base plus about $20.24 in volume charges). A full water-and-sewer total depends on the account's meter size and winter-average status.
- Wastewater and sewer calculation
- Wastewater is billed at $5.89 per 1,000 gallons plus a meter-size base charge; the published 5/8-inch wastewater base is $18.10. Until a winter sewer average is established, residential wastewater is billed at 80% of water consumption, with a 12,000-gallon maximum used in the reviewed schedule. Additional units and other service fees can change the total.
- Meter reading
- Grand Prairie promotes H2Know digital water meters with online consumption monitoring and usage alerts. The reviewed pages support digital usage visibility but did not state the exact AMI transmission interval or universal read date for every service address.
- Activation or transfer fee
- The published service-fee schedule lists a $25 service-activation fee. The reviewed page did not separately state a transfer fee for an account moved into a new resident's name.
