Utility Billing Online Services

To open a utility services account online, complete and submit a Start Service on New Account Request.

• Applications should be submitted at least 3 days in advance of the service start date. If you need utility service started sooner, call our Customer Care representatives to assist you.
• New service connections are only handled on weekdays during normal business hours (except holidays).
• Every new account is required to pay a $50.00 service initiation fee. A credit letter will NOT be accepted in lieu of this fee. All new customers will be required to pay a $50.00 deposit. In some cases, previous customers starting service at a new address may also be required to pay a $50.00 deposit. Service initiation fees and deposits will be added to the customer's first utility bill.
