If you are a residential customer, you can have a consistent monthly utility payment amount by opting for the Budget Billing Plan. Here’s how it works:
Your Budget Bill monthly payment for 12 months is based on three items:
- Your electricity bill for the past 12 months divided by 11 and rounded to the nearest whole dollar.
- Your water bill for the past 12 months divided by 11 and rounded to the nearest whole dollar.
- Fixed monthly charges for wastewater solid waste and storm water utility services if applicable.
At the 12th month, which is the anniversary of when you started the Budget Billing Plan, we'll recalculate your Budget Billing Plan amount for your next 12 months. Any debit or credit from the previous Budget Bill term is divided by 12 and calcuated into the next year's budget amount.
