Provider-specific findings
Delinquency research for this provider
The notes below may document a rule or explain a specific public-information limit. Any active notice and direct provider confirmation remain controlling.
- Shut-off timeline
- The City publishes four billing cycles with due dates and provides extended payment arrangements to delay disconnection. Online or automated payments cannot restore service after a nonpayment interruption; the customer must contact Utility Customer Services at 512-393-8383.
- Warning and notice protocol
- The City offers qualified customers payment extensions and assistance to delay disconnection, but the reviewed public materials do not state a universal number of warning days or whether notices are delivered by mail, phone, text, or door hanger.
- Reconnection costs
- The current water-rate page lists a $40 reconnect fee, and a new customer account fee of $110 for existing service/meter. The reviewed pages do not expose a separate regular-hours versus after-hours reconnection amount; assistance does not cover connection, tampering, or after-hours connection fees.
