Monthly Utility Billing Option

COVID-19 Response

A 60-day grace period for Utility bills was issued between March 16 through May 15. Payment due dates were extended, late payment penalties were not applied and collection action was suspended. As a result of these payment deferrals to monthly billing accounts, future due dates needed to be adjusted and payment schedules changed in order to facilitate the return to a normal billing cycle. Refer to the below for the current due dates for upcoming utility bills.

Date of Bill Consumption Period Due Date
July 24 June August 17
Aug 7 July August 31
September 4 August Sept 28

Note: Billings occur more frequently in August in order to catch up on previously deferred bills.
