The City bills water, sanitary sewer, storm sewer, and street light service to its customers on a quarterly basis. These billings cover a period of three months. Wet Industries are billed on a monthly basis.

Your utility bill is divided into two parts. The bottom portion of the bill lists your services and billed amounts—keep this portion for your records. Return the top portion of your bill with your payment.

Account number, customer number, balance due, billing date, and due date are clearly listed in boxed sections on the invoice. The total balance due is listed in the upper right corner and the lower right portion of your bill.

Additional information on your bill includes the previous balance, payment applied, current and previous meter readings, and your water usage.

Meter Readings

Previous Reading: The read taken three months earlier.

Present Reading: The current reading and date read. Your meter measures water usage in thousands of gallons. The difference between the previous and present readings is your usage for the billing period.

Example: Previous read 710, present read 716, usage 6 — you used 6,000 gallons of water during the billing period.
