Oxford Village’s recent water and sewer rate changes were calculated based on outdated information involving the meter sizes for some residential accounts.
Some accounts may have been billed as a 1-inch size meter rather than 5/8 or 3/4-inch. The size of the water meter is shown on the dial face and also on the meter casing.
The water rate for the 1-inch is $18.10 per month. For 5/8-inch or 3/4-inch meters, it’s $16.45 per month. This flat fee appears separately on the monthly water/sewer bill.
Village residents who have been incorrectly billed are encouraged to contact the village at 248-628-2543, so corrections can be made. The adjustment amount from 1-inch to 5/8-inch is $3.82 per month less for water and sewer combined.
