Billing Information

Utility bills are mailed out on the 1st of each month and are due on the 15th of each month. Meters are read monthly. In the event that your bill goes 40 days past due you will receive a termination notice. After receiving a termination notice you will be given 2 weeks to either pay your bill or come into the office to make payment arrangements; please remember that the homeowner/responsible party must make the arrangement.

If neither of these are done you will be put on the shut-off list, services will be disconnected on the last Tuesday of the month, and a $30 late fee will be applied to your utility bill. To have services restored the current amount due on your utility bill will need to be paid unless other arrangements are made. If there is not a current deposit on file, a new $120 deposit (cash or credit card only) will be required along with the reconnect fee and past due balance.

Level Pay

The City of Jerome offers level pay, also known as equal pay to those that have been on service for one year and have good payment history (defined as six months of on-time payment). Level pay allows you to make the same monthly payment each month. Level pay amounts are calculated by using the most recent years' average billings.

If you would like to sign up for level pay please come to City Hall to fill out the application.
