Question

What is residential balanced billing?

Answer

Residential balanced billing is a consistent monthly sewer bill based on the residential customer's average water usage in the winter months. The winter water usage is used to calculate the monthly average since these are typically the low usage months with no irrigation. A customer's average usage is established in August and used for the sewer billing for the next 12 months. Residential balanced billing provides a consistent monthly bill amount.
