Hi Neighbors,
Our first-time sewer bills are coming the middle of this month. Here is some information you should know.

Paper sewer bills are issued quarterly, and are charged based on service provided the prior quarter. For example, the sewer bill providing service for the January-February-March is mailed in May and due in June.
How is my sewer bill calculated?
The sewer bill is calculated using a flat fee of $49.50 per month for each residential house. Condominiums, apartments, commercial and industrial users are then factored off the $49.50 per month base fee.
Does water usage factor into the calculated sewer bill?
Water usage does not affect the sewer bill.
Are sewer bills mailed monthly, quarterly, bi-annually or annually?
Sewer bills are mailed quarterly, and are always sent out a quarter behind. For instance, the sewer bill for the first quarter (January thru March) is sent in May and due in June. Bills are mailed around the middle of the month in February, May, August and November with payment due on the first Friday of the following month.
What are the dates of the sewer fiscal year?
The fiscal year runs from July 1st of one year to June 30th of the following year. For example: July-Aug-Sept (3rd qtr. 2006) Oct-Nov-Dec (4th qtr. 2006) Jan-Feb-Mar (1st qtr. 2007) Apr-May-June (2nd qtr. 2007).
