\"LargeRates for multi-family dwellings and commercial units are based on varying factors such as water meter size and the number of units. Contact Beacon Hill Water & Sewer District for a detailed cost of connection.<\/p>\n

Currently, residential accounts are billed monthly at a flat rate of $52.50 per unit, per month based on availability, not usage, and therefore cannot be “shut off” as with other utilities.<\/p>\n

Billing starts after an approved sewer service connection is made. If the residence or building is still vacant at that time, you may contact the office to apply for a vacancy credit upon meeting all qualifications.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n
