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; meter readings and utility bills are issued monthly on district calendars.
- Rate structure
- Monthly fixed meter-size charge plus declining-block water volume rates: $6.10, $5.80, $5.60 and $5.05 per 100 cubic feet by usage block, with separate monthly sewer, fire-protection and stormwater charges.
- Residential cost reference
- For a typical 5/8- or 3/4-inch account using 5,000-7,000 gallons (about 6.7-9.4 CCF), water is approximately $50.80-$67.37 including the $9.94 fixed charge, before sewer, fire protection and stormwater. The City's representative 1,000-CF combined monthly example totals $178.92 including all listed services.
- Wastewater and sewer calculation
- Sewer is billed monthly using the same metered water volume assumption unless a deduct meter applies: $7.12 per 100 cubic feet plus a meter-size fixed charge, less the $1.67 deduct-meter monthly charge where applicable. Stormwater is separately based on equivalent runoff units.
- Meter reading
- The City states readings are taken monthly, subtracted from the prior reading and billed in 100-cubic-foot increments; AquaHawk provides usage and threshold alerts. The reviewed pages do not identify the meter vendor or transmission interval.
