No, The Board requires a deposit as security against future charges for commercial water service. The minimum deposit will be $100, with the maximum deposit being up to three times the monthly bill that the business is expected to incur based upon the estimated consumption of the business. After one (1) year of service, business customers may request that the deposit amount be reviewed by the Board to determine the accuracy of the estimated consumption upon which the deposit was based. After said review, the business may receive a partial refund of the deposit or be billed an additional deposit, based upon the evaluation of the past year’s consumption. Businesses with a clean record of payment, having had previous service within the last 24 months, established at least 3 years (36 months), will not be required to post a deposit (however, a deposit may be required at a future date, if the business does not maintain a good credit rating).
