Due Date:
  • Utility bills are due on the 15th of each month. If the 15th falls on a weekend, please make sure to have it paid prior to the close of business on the Friday before the due date to avoid a 10% late fee being assessed to your bill.

  • Past due bills that are not paid by 5:00pm the Monday before the 1st Tuesday of the following month will be subject to disconnection and will incur a $25.00 fee. On the 1st Tuesday of every month if you have not paid your past due, you must pay your account balance in full in order to have services restored. This means that you will be required to pay your past due bill, your current bill, and the $25.00 fee.
