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 utility billing is implied by the current monthly rate table and the due-date language; the published customer rule gives customers 20 days from the bill’s mailing date to pay the current bill before the late fee applies.
- Rate structure
- Fixed base charge plus increasing variable usage rates, differentiated by service class and inside/outside-city status. For A1 single-residential service, the up-to-3/4-inch inside-city base is $11.50 for up to 999 gallons, then $2.25 per 1,000 gallons from 999-19,999 gallons and $2.50 above 20,000. Sewer adds a $9 fixed charge plus $1.45 per 1,000 gallons based on water consumption for A1 single residential.
- Residential cost reference
- Approximately $42.70 per month for 6,000 gallons of inside-city A1 residential water/sewer before drainage, sanitation, taxes, and payment fees: roughly $25.00 water ($11.50 base plus six 1,000-gallon units at $2.25) and $17.70 sewer ($9 fixed plus six units at $1.45). Mission’s published rate table should be used for the exact account class and meter size.
- Wastewater and sewer calculation
- A1 single-residential sewer is based on water consumption with a $9 fixed rate, $1.45 variable rate per 1,000 gallons, and a 1.0 multiplication factor. Residential outside-city A8 accounts instead use a $26 fixed sewer-average charge; inactive A9 accounts use the $9 fixed plus $1.45 water-consumption formula.
- Meter reading
- Mission installed residential and commercial automatic smart water meters through a project involving the City, Performance Services, and Sensus. The smart-meter portal is intended to show when and how customers use water, support monthly budgets and high-consumption detection, and send customer-service alerts; the reviewed project page identifies zone installation dates but does not publish an hourly read interval.
