[Music] when was the last time you took a close look at your utility bill as a city of arva customer understanding your utility bill can help you better connect with the Investments you're making to support the utility infrastructure and services provided to our arvata community so how do you read your utility bill let's break it down in the top right of the water bill you will find a unique customer number an account number for the property the payment due date and the amount due As you move down to the next line of the bill you will find the previous bill amount and payment made as well as any outstanding balance or credit for overpayment next is the water charges section this shows how much water was used in the billing period the water use reflected on the bill is from the previous 2 months of usage as an example a bill received in September reflects usage in July in August the city uses a four tiered rate structure these tiers help fund our efforts toward water conservation and related programs like Garden in a box the amount you pay per 1,000 gallons increases with each tier tier one covers a property's first 30,000 gallons of water this is sufficient for typical indoor water usage during outdoor watering season some households can see their water usage move up as high as tier four depending on how much water is used the more you use the more you pay the service charge that you see here is a flat fee that all users pay to support utilities operations following that is the sewer charge which supports the maintenance and operation of sewer systems this is calculated on a per 1,000 gallons of water discharged through the system and is based on average wintertime usage between November 1st through April 30th the storm water fee is based on the square footage of impervious surface area on the property that does not allow water to pass this fee is calculated every 2 years in 2021 the city started the waste and recycling program on the bill residents will see a new line showing applicable waste and recycling services this example includes charges for 2 months of service level three 95g cart charges can vary because billing happens in an 8we cycle and not every customer's Bill matches up exactly with this 8we cycle this means you may pay Less in one bill and more in the next this does average out to your monthly fee over the 12-month period total due is the amount you are required to pay VIA mail or online portal residents who pay their utility bills through the City's online payment portal will see a difference between their paper bill or ebill and the amount due shown on the payment portal current read shows when your water meter was read the meter reading as well as previous Bill reading and the read dates a a graph is provided to show an historical comparison of past total consumption over a 12-month period showing the fluctuations in consumption related to the high water usage during the summer watering season if you'd like to set up automatic payments for your utility bill and paid directly from your bank account rather than with a credit card in the online portal you can use the form on the back of your bill to sign up this will pull the full bill amount directly from your bank account on the bill due date if you'd like to sign up for this feature simply fill in the appropriate information and mail it back to us along with your bill payment paying by check or direct debit from your bank account are the most coste effective ways for utility customers to pay the bill these two options have a much lower processing fee meaning the city and in turn our customers save money when using these options if you prefer to receive paperless billing you can register the account and customer number located at the top of your bill here once Reg you would need to select the paperless option please note that only future bills will be paperless prior bills will not be available on the website if you have questions please visit arvada.org paymy waterer bill or call us at 720 898 7070 Monday through Friday 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. thank you for being a valued customer [Music]
