City adopts new water and sewer billing rules
Adds accountability for employees, waiver for almost-perfect customers
City Statesboro logo
New rules that Statesboro City Council approved Tuesday restrict water bill adjustments for city employees and their families but also provide a waiver of late charges for customers with previously spotless five-year payment histories. Council heard a first reading May 5, so the unanimous vote Tuesday put the new Water and Sewer Billing Ordinance into effect. The actual city law is just over one page long, but it refers to billing procedures in a 3½-page attachment.
