1. How do I open a new account?

Accounts can be opened in person at Town Hall during regular business hours. New owners must present a copy of a Photo ID, as well as a copy of the closing statement (HUD statement). Tenants are not able to open their own account. Commercial customers will need to provide proof of having obtained a Business Tax Receipt prior to establishing an account. For information on Business Tax Receipts, please call 954-797-1178. There is a $30 New Account Charge for setting up any account; this will appear on the customer’s first bill listed as "Connection Charge".

If service has been disconnected and you believe this is in error, please call the Customer Service Division at 954-797-1065. When service has been discontinued for non-payment, the entire amount of the bill must be paid in full before service can be restored.

Disconnection fees and other miscellaneous charges will be charged to your account and shown on the following month's bill.

4. How do I get my security deposit refund?

Security deposits for current tenants will be refunded once the Town no longer furnishes service to the customer. When an account is closed, the deposit will be applied to the final balance and the difference will be refunded. If the final bill is more than the deposit amount, a bill will be sent to the customer.  We no longer require deposits for owners.  Owners with a deposit on an account can request their deposit be refunded as a credit to the account.

5. What is a delinquent account?

Water and Sewer bills are due upon receipt of the bill and are considered delinquent 21 days from the billing date. The due date is printed on the top of the bill; failure to pay by the due date will result in a late fee on the following month’s bill. Late fee is a minimum of $7.00 or 12% (annually) of the unpaid balance, whichever is greater.

The delinquent date is printed on the bottom of the bill; failure to pay two monthly billings will result in disconnection of service. The non-payment disconnect charge is $30 (between 7:30 am and 3:30 pm-Monday through Friday); please note that service will not be reconnected after hours and/or on weekends. If service is disconnected, the overdue balance must be paid in full to have service reconnected.

7. Who is responsible for the utility easements?

It is the responsibility of individual property owners to keep utility easements clean. This includes cutting the grass, cleaning debris and maintaining access to the water meters. Meter readers are not responsible for removing items placed on top of meter boxes (or in some cases, cars parked over meter boxes).
If the meter is not accessible, it will not be read. This can result in a zero reading and an estimated bill.
