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; the utility describes a monthly bill and monthly fixed service and consumption charges.
- Rate structure
- Fixed meter-size service charge plus monthly consumption charge; the utility sets rates through a cost-of-service model.
- Residential cost reference
- $88.85 estimated water-and-sewer bill for a single-family home using 5,000 gallons per month, based on the utility comparison published for rates effective July 1, 2026.
- Wastewater and sewer calculation
- The monthly bill combines water and wastewater charges. The current customer pages describe fixed service charges based on meter size and consumption charges based on monthly usage; the public summary does not provide a separate residential sewer winter-average formula, so the exact sewer allocation depends on the account tariff and bill.
- Meter reading
- The account is billed monthly from a meter-based consumption reading. The current public pages do not identify the meter communications technology or a fixed reader route schedule.
- New-account deposit
- New service and transfers carry a non-refundable Application Fee. Tenants must also pay an Advance Payment Deposit on the first bill; the current FAQ directs customers to the Customer Handbook for the dollar amounts.
- Activation or transfer fee
- A non-refundable Application Fee is charged for each new account or transfer and appears on the first bill.
