Reading your Utility Billing

How much is a Utility Bill?
The total cost for water/sewer is a fixed monthly charge plus additional consumption charges.

Water Base Charge: $91.33 
Water Consumption: $18.00 min for the 1st 1000 gallons ($18.00/1000 gallons thereafter). 
Sewer Fixed Charge: $18.00
Infrastructure Fixed Charge: $3.40
Waste, Recycling, & Organics Charge: $24.50

Note: Commercial businesses are charged differently than residential consumers.

How is my Water Bill calculated?
Water meters measure consumption based on water consumed/gallon. The amount of Water consumption used by your residence is then multiplied by the current water rate.

Am I still charged if I don’t use any water?
There is a minimum charge in order to supply water services to your property even if no water is consumed. This is the fixed charge for the water and sewer system.
