Your meter will be read each month, and the bill will arrive approximately one week after the meter is read. 

Electric bills are:

• Payment MUST REACH OUR OFFICE ON OR BEFORE THE DUE DATE to avoid a LATE SERVICE CHARGE of $5.00 or 2.5% of the current bill, whichever is greater. 
• Service may be discontinued if payment is not received within 25 days from the date billed. 
• Previous unpaid balance may be subject to immediate disconnect and additional deposits. Prior notice of due dates remains in effect.
• Payment agencies listed below can only accept payments for the full amount of the bill and cannot accept payments after the COLLECTION POINT DATE.
