Town ordinances require the payment of a $350 deposit to begin residential utility service and a $500 deposit to begin commercial utility service.  Property owners residing in their own homes may have the deposit refunded after 12 months if timely payments have been made.  Renters are required to maintain a deposit as long as they rent.  Property owners of rental properties are also required to maintain a permanent deposit with the town.  We do not accept credit references in lieu of a deposit.

Electric charges are based on a monthly service fee of $15.50/$18.50/$26.50/$33.50 depending on type of service and then billed at 15 cents per kilowatt.  Meters are read around the 20th of each month and bills are mailed by the 25th of the month.

All other town utilities are charged at a flat monthly rate:

• Water is charged at $30.00 residential and $35.00 business a month.
• Sewer is charged at $18.00 residential and $24.00 business a month.
• Garbage is charged at $27.00 residential and business rates based on dumpster size per month.
• Garbage utility fuel surcharge is calculated and billed to all garbage utility customers as per Ordinance #362. 

Dumpster Etiquette – Only grass and leaves may be placed in the green dumpsters; all other allowable trash and yard waste goes in the brown dumpsters.  Non-acceptable waste such as asphalt, cement, metal pipes, rocks, sod, paints, tires, toxic chemicals and wood should not be placed in either dumpster.

Utility payments are due by the 10th of the following month.  Accounts not paid by the 20th of the following month are delinquent and will be assessed a late fee of 1.5% (of account balance) monthly.  All accounts left unpaid will be shut off at the end of the month.  Please call and make payment arrangements.  Accounts shutoff for nonpayment will also be charged a reconnect fee of $80 during normal business hours (M-F 7am-4pm) or $150 during other hours.
