About Your Water Bill

Bills are rendered approximately every 30 days. Each bill is based on a meter reading taken one week to 10 days before you receive your bill. Check our Water Billing Cycle Map (PDF) to find out when you will be billed.

You will receive a two-part perforated bill. Return the bottom portion with your payment for the proper crediting to your account. The top portion provides a detailed accounting of your bill and may be retained by you for your records.
