Water Service Rates and Charges <br /> <br /> Water users are billed for water service and sewer service <br />on a bimonthly basis. The two components of the water service <br />bill include a demand charge based on the size of water meter <br />plus a water consumption charge based on the volume of water <br />use. Unpaid bills become delinquent 21 days from the date of <br />mailing by the City. A 10% penalty is added if the bill is not <br />paid within 30 days from the date of mailing by the City. The <br />tabulation below shows the schedule of charges for water <br />service which has been in effect since January 1983. <br /> <br /> 1.
