To establish service, a signed Application for Water and Sewer Service must be received from the property owner. All accounts must be set-up in the name of the property owner, and billings remain in the owner’s name, even if a tenant occupies the premises.
For new developments including single family dwellings, effective date of service begins with the date of meter installation.
Water/Sewer accounts are billed bi-monthly.
