What if I water during the summer?
The City recognizes that summertime watering of lawns and gardens does not create a greater demand upon the sewer system, and has adjusted accordingly. Customers only pay for direct use during the winter months. For the remainder of the year, sewer billing is based on the average water use for the non-watering months. This billing structure is designed so that customers do not pay sewer charges for water that does not enter the sewer system.
