rates are not changed.
Financial Hardship Payment Arrangements
In case of financial hardship, arrangements
for extended payment terms can be made by contacting the City
Clerk. Utility charges are ultimately the liability
of the property owner and if unpaid, water service may be
subject to discontinuance. In addition, charges may
be subject to a lien on the property and certification to
the County Treasurer for collection.
Seasonal Summer Averages
In the summer months volumetric rates are
charged based on the actual volumetric usage during the months
of November through April of each year. For the months
of May through October of each year, charges are based upon
the average monthly volumetric usage for the previous November
through April, or upon actual volumetric usage for the current
bi-monthly usage, whichever is less.
Estimated Bills
If for some reason (dog, blocked meter, or
tagged by the meter reader and no response has been given
by the property owner) a meter cannot be read, the customer
will receive an estimated bi-monthly bill of 40,000 gallons.
