Residential customers are defined as any single family detached home: includes individual homes, apartments,
condos, and trailers.
An application for service should be filed and all connection fees must be paid prior to the installation of
any new sanitary sewer line. These fees are collected at the time the application is completed. A plumber's
permit cannot be issued until verification of a current bond is made and fees are paid.
Below is the current schedule of connection fees to be paid. Please note these fees are subject to change.

We must obtain the property owner's name and we will only send bills to the property owner. The District
recognizes the need for this procedure due to the fact that any and all unpaid charges will accrue against
the property and may result in the District having to take action which would adversely affect the property
owner and disrupt the tenant's service. It is the decision between the owner and the tenant as to whom will
be responsible for the payment of all charges.
1. To transfer property from one individual to another:
--- If you wish to transfer property from one individual to another, we must have written confirmation of the
transfer. A copy of the closing statement or transfer papers is acceptable.
2. To transfer property at the time of a sale:
--- The closing attorney should contact us prior to the sale of the property to insure that there are no outstanding
balances or liens on the property. If the attorney contacts us they may give the new owner's name and proposed
closing date, however, the transfer will not be made until we receive a written confirmation of the actual sale
of the property. We will record the name of the attorney, the new owner's name, and any amounts quoted.
3. To change legal name or mailing address:
--- A written request must be submitted by the verified owner. This request can be in the form of a separate document
or written on the space provided on the bill.
Any bill returned to us by the United States Postal Service as undelivered due to an insufficient address or owner's
name, will be verified by one of our personnel by visiting the property. The District understands that it is the
decision between the owner and the tenant as to whom will be responsible for payment of all charges. The District
recognizes the need for this procedure due to the fact that any and all unpaid charges that accrue on the property
may result in the District taking action which would adversely affect the property owner and disrupt the tenants
service.

Don't pour grease or other foreign matter down the sewer. It is damaging to the equipment and causes backups and
blockages in the lines, resulting in costly repairs both to the customers and to the District. If you don't have a
back flow preventer valve installed in your sewer line, and damages occur due to a sewage backup into the home, the
District may not be held responsible. At the homeowner's expense, please have a plumber check your line.
