NEW RESIDENTIAL WATER AND SEWER RATES

NEW RESIDENTIAL WATER AND SEWER RATES

Effective October 1, 2011, in town residential customers will be billed for their water and sewer use based on their metered water consumption. Meters will be read and the billing will still be prepared and mailed on a calendar quarter basis. The first consumption based bill will be mailed on or about December 30. For most customers, the previous 3 invoices included consumption data that can be used to calculate what your bill would have been using the new rates. You can also call the town office if you need assistance with this calculation.

WATER RATES

Minimum charge $30.00 per quarter; includes -0- to 10,000 gallons of water

Extra consumption $ 2.50 for each thousand gallons, or fraction thereof, over 10,000 gallons
