My payment is late.

A 5% late fee will apply to the whole past due balance if payment is not received by the due date on your bill. If your payment is returned, you may be charged an additional processing fee, as well as any applicable late fees.

I'm experiencing a financial hardship.

If you are experiencing financial hardship, customer service can provide guidance for how to best manage your specific situation. You can also read more information on programs for lowering your bill.

How can I avoid disconnection?

Customers will receive written notice before water service can be disconnected for non-payment. Prior to disconnection, eligible customers may apply for an installment payment plan to pay off past due balances. Tenants of rental properties facing disconnection should contact customer service for guidance. Delinquent water, sewer, storm water, and refuse charges may become a lien on your property and subject to collection activity.

How can I dispute charges?

Customers have the right to request an explanation of charges, as well as dispute a bill. If a dispute cannot be resolved by customer service, customers have the right to initiate an appeals process within 30 days of the initial dispute. Read more about the utility dispute process..
