Sewer and waste water bills have a minimum monthly charge for 0-4000 gallons. Usage in excess of 4000 gallons is charged based on a commodity schedule.
Solid waste service is provided at a flat rate per month and includes solid waste, yard waste and recycling.

New Accounts/Deposit Information
Water service is never "disconnected" when a customer moves or sells a property. The account is transferred from one owner to another. If you are a new owner or renter of a property, please contact the department to have service set up in your name.
Deposits are required on all accounts. The deposit for a new account is due before the transfer date of new owner/renter.
Deposit Amounts
Commercial $300
Residential, Owner $150
Residential, Renter $250
**Deposits are refundable after 24 months of timely payments for residential accounts and 60 months for commercial accounts
Water & Sewer Taps
New taps for water and sewer service may be applied for at Village Hall. The cost for these will vary depending on the type of service and meter size required.
