What is the average utility bill?
An average bill based on 5,000 gallons consumption on a 5/8" meter would be $92.97. Services included in your bill are water, sewer, sanitation, and stormwater. Billing is done monthly. Minimum bill of $70.07 applies (no usage) for a 5/8" meter. Base charges increase with meter size. A 10% late charge is applied to the unpaid balance 10 days after the due date.


Payment must be received by 2 p.m. to get same day credit. Previous balances are due 10 days from the last billing date to prevent suspension. In the event utility services are suspended for non-payment, a suspension fee is charged. The total past due bill plus the $55.00 suspension fee is due before service will be restored.
