Any structure that is served with a separate connection to the District’s
water system that is designed to provide water to fire suppression systems
such as fire sprinklers. Reflecting potential demand on the District’s
water system, the quarterly service charge is based on the size of the
service connection. All water metered by the “detector” meter will be
billed at the highest residential rate currently in effect.
Important Terms & Information
Appeal Process: Any customer who by
reason of special circumstances, believes that these rates have been
incorrectly applied to his or her account, may, within thirty (30) days
after the billing date, appeal to the District Manager or to such appeal
panel as may be appointed by the Board. Any disputes not resolved by such
an appeal may be further appealed to the Board of Directors within fifteen
(15) days after a notice of decision has been given. The filing of an
appeal shall not postpone the due date of the billing.
Ccf = 100 cubic Feet = 748 gallons
Due Dates: You are billed bi-monthly for water service. Bills
are payable upon presentation and delinquent 50 days after the service
period ends. Failure to receive a bill does not excuse late payment. Any
unpaid balance at the next reading date will be subject to a 10% penalty.
(EDU) Equivalent Dwelling Unit: Any mobile home pad, apartment,
separate structure of building with habitable space or facilities that
could be used for living, sleeping, eating, or cooking, which could be
rented and/or occupied by an individual or family. This does not include a
home business, which is contained within a single structure (including an
attached garage) and operated by occupant.
Examine your bill: Important information is contained on your
water bill. If there are errors on your bill please contact us
immediately. Verify that we have the correct service address, mailing
address, EDU’S, Owner Name, and Rate Code. See “appeal process”
above for more information.
Fire Hydrant Maintenance Surcharge: Each customer’s water
bill will reflect an additional $2.00 fee collected for the Town of
Paradise.
New Owners: New owners of property are placed on the “B”
rate automatically. Your rate will be recalculated in April after you have
owned the property for one year.
Rate Codes: Rate codes are listed after each service rate in
parenthesis. Examine your bill to ensure that the correct rate code is
listed.
Sealed Meters: You may have your meter sealed to reduce your
bi-monthly service charge. Water cannot be drawn from a sealed meter.
Meters sealed for non-payment require full payment of account plus any
sealed meter charges in order for water service to be restored.
Who can receive a bill: District policy requires that the “recorded
owner receive the water bill”. Delinquent bills constitute a possible
lien on the property. Duplicate bills for tenants or other parties are
available upon request, for an additional $1.00 per bill, per billing
period.
