Applicant must complete the Waiver. Form is available for printing at www.slwsd.org > Customer Service tab > New Accounts & Billing menu.
Applicant shall be responsible for rendering all required deposits and other fees and charges in accordance with the Rules of the SLWSD prior to the SLWSD rendering service. Every new account requires a deposit based on the meter size for the service location. The deposit is neither negotiable nor transferable. Statements are monthly and payments are due by the due date every month regardless whether service is being used. Past due bills are subject to a 10% penalty and/or discontinuation of service. Failure to receive a bill does not waive the penalty. The owner of the property at the service location is responsible for all outstanding account balances. The SLWSD may withhold service to a consumer who makes application for service at or upon a location for which prior service has not been paid in full to the date of such application. Should any account balance become past due after the final settlement of that account, the outstanding account balance shall be applied to the next consumer’s account for that service location, and may result in service being terminated if not paid within twenty (20) calendar days of the date of the SLWSD written notice of the outstanding account balance. If this date falls on a weekend or SLWSD holiday, then the due date shall be the next business day.
All properties serviced by SLWSD are required to pay a minimum monthly base rate in addition to usage charges. The SLWSD’s rate schedules impose monthly water and wastewater base facility charges upon each service connection so that every month, the SLWSD bills its consumers for base facility charges plus charges for actual consumption. Therefore, even if a consumer has no measurable metered water usage during a given month, the SLWSD nonetheless bills the consumer for the monthly base facility charges. Irrigation service charges are also billed monthly on a fixed rate; however, because irrigation service is not metered, the consumer is not charged extra for usage. Base facility charges for water and wastewater may be found in Schedule A to the Rules of the SLWSD, and fixed charges for irrigation service may be found in Schedule D.
By signing the application, I understand and agree to abide by the Rules of the SLWSD. I also understand that this application will not be processed if the application is incomplete. Applications will be deemed incomplete if the applicant fails to submit any required information, documentation, deposits, and other applicable charges. One business days’ notice is required to process this application.
