Utility Billing

The Vineyard City Council has approved adjustments to the sewer rates, effective May 1, 2024. These changes will be reflected in current billing cycles. 

Reasons for the Increase

Vineyard City evaluates sewer rates yearly to ensure they cover operational costs, maintenance, and planned improvements. Rising expenses, including infrastructure maintenance and compliance with regulatory standards, necessitate this adjustment. 

Additionally, state and federal regulations require specific sewer collection and treatment standards, contributing to increased costs across the state. While Vineyard City provides residents utility billing, the costs comprise internal city costs for sewer collection from your home or business and charges from agencies that provide sewer treatment of that sewage. 

The amount billed to Vineyard City for sewage treatment increased as of January 1, 2024. From the increase to now, Vineyard City did not pass those costs along to our customers. 

How Your Bill Is Calculated

Sewer rates are structured to cover both fixed and usage-based charges. The fixed monthly fee ensures reliable service, while usage charges are based on metered consumption. 

Ways to Manage Your Bill 

Residents can reduce their sewer bills by minimizing water usage. Simple steps like installing water-saving fixtures, limiting shower time, and addressing leaks can make a significant difference.

How Can You Help Us? 

We encourage you to contact your State Representatives to encourage them to provide state resources to assist communities in implementing the new rules by providing the necessary funding to reduce costs to communities and residents. 

We appreciate your understanding as we strive to maintain a sustainable sewer system for the Vineyard City community. 

Sincerely, 

Vineyard City
