Dear Valued Customers,

As your municipally owned and not-for-profit utility, we strive to provide you with safe and reliable power and water at the lowest possible cost. However, we need to address a recent challenge that is affecting both our utility and customers like you. The rising cost of credit card and electronic payment processing fees has become a significant burden, especially as we have observed an increasing number of customers opting to use these payment methods.

In recent years, credit card processing fees have steadily increased due to various factors within the industry. Unfortunately, these rising costs have reached a point where it is no longer feasible for us to bear the full burden on behalf of the customers who choose to pay with these methods. We understand that many of you prefer the convenience of these payment methods, and we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

In order to ensure that we are keeping expenses in check for all customers, we have made the difficult decision to adjust our payment policies. Starting June 30, 2023, we will be unable to absorb credit card and other one-time electronic payment processing fees on your behalf. Instead, these fees will be passed on directly to the customer making a payment using these methods.

We understand that this change may raise concerns and questions, and we want to assure you that we are here to help. Our dedicated staff is available to assist you and provide any necessary clarification or assistance. Please be aware that we also have alternative payment options that have no fees.

We genuinely apologize for any inconvenece caused by these adjustments.  As a not-for-profit utility, our primary fobus is on serving you, our customers, and we appreciate your understanding and support as we make these changes.

Sincerely,

Ben Collins, General Manager
