Utility meters are read on the 15^th of each month; bills are mailed on the 20^th of each month and are due by the 9^th of the following month.  A $10.00 late fee charge is added to bills not paid on or before 5:30 p.m. the 9^th of the month.  Bills not paid before 5:30 pm on the 14th of the month will have service disconnected AND a $50.00 reconnection fee is added.  Once the service is disconnected, the entire account balance must be paid, including late and reconnection fees before water service is turned back on.   While the service is off for non-payment, it may NOT be cut on until a town employee comes to get a reading and cuts the water on.   If the meter shows that water has been on during the time service should be off, tampering has occurred and an additional $50.00 tampering fee will be added to the outstanding bill.
