factors such as water meter size and number of units. Contact Beacon Hill
Water & Sewer District for a detailed cost of connection.
Currently, residential accounts are billed monthly at a flat rate of $50.00 per unit, per month based on availability, not usage and therefore cannot be "shut off" as with other utilities.
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.
