Utility Billing
Dobson’s Utility Billing section works with the Administration Department and Public Works Department to accurately measure customer water and sewer usage, distribute utility bills, and collect utility payments and fees associated with the Town’s water and sewer systems.
How Utility Billing Works
Each customer has a water meter installed to measure the amount of water used monthly. These meters are read monthly by the Public Works Department. The information from the meter readings is then used to generate utility bills that are sent out on the last business day of each month.
Utility Bill Due Date
Utility bills are due on the 20th of each month and will be considered late if paid after this date. If not paid by the 20th, a 10% late fee will be assessed. Accounts not paid before the 30th of each month will have a $25 administrative fee added to the account and will be subject to disconnection. Payments must be received prior to the office opening on the 30th to avoid disconnection. To restore service, the past due amount and administrative fee must be paid.
The town contracts with Paymentus to allow customers to pay their utility bill online using a Visa, Mastercard, Discover Card, or eCheck. A $2 convenience fee applies to all transactions.
