Levelized Billing Program

To better serve our members who wish to smooth out the "peaks and valleys" in their monthly bills, we offer a rolling 12-month levelized billing. Here's how it works.

1. Your levelized billing amount will now change monthly to reflect a rolling 12-month average. You will no longer pay the same amount each month. Your monthly payment will change moderately reflecting changes caused by weather and usage patterns. This change is designed so that your debit/credit balance is fine-tuned to reflect actual usage conditions, and eliminate final "catch-up" balances.


2. You must have 12 months of billing history with us and have a zero balance on your account to participate. To calculate your payment, we have used your most recent twelve months history. To reiterate the program, your levelized billing amount will be adjusted monthly on a rolling twelve-month usage average.


3. A member will NOT be eligible to participate in the plan unless the bill received in June is paid in full by the due date of that bill.


4. All monthly levelized billing payments must be paid when due. Since the amount of the bill is derived from previous usage, it is imperative that all payments be made. Failure to do so would result in your removal from the program. If you are removed from the program for any reason, you will not be allowed to participate again for 6 months.


5. This program is available to all homeowners & renters, especially those who have large swings in seasonal usage.


6. Participation in the program will continue until the member notifies the co-op in writing that they wish to terminate their participation.
