- Billing frequency
- Monthly; water bills are mailed monthly.
- Rate structure
- Minimum allowance plus increasing-block volumetric charges. Water is $16 for the first 1,500 gallons, then $4.00 per 1,000 gallons through 7,000, $4.25 through 20,000, and $4.50 above 20,000.
- Residential cost reference
- Approximately $53.13 per month for a 5/8-inch water-and-sewer customer using 6,000 gallons: $34.00 water ($16 plus 4.5 units at $4.00) and about $38.13 sewer ($19 plus 4.5 units at $4.25). The displayed rate schedule’s unit wording should be confirmed against the account’s meter reading convention.

- New-account deposit
- Water or sewer only on a 5/8-inch meter: $125. Water and sewer combined on a 5/8-inch meter: $150. A 1-inch meter deposit is $175; larger meters are based on estimated usage. A second equal-or-smaller service is listed as waived.
