FEE STRUCTURE:
You may pay your bill by:
US Mail, or In person at the District offices. Presently we accept Cash and Checks only.
Beginning June 1, 2013 The South Lyons Township Sanitary District will no longer be
billing on an Annual Basis. As previously experienced on your annual bill we will,
instead bill on a quarterly basis which will include the 10% discount if paid by the due
date.
Past Dues
The District uses several methods to collect on past due accounts. We normally try to
work with our customers that are having a hard time making payments. After several
unsuccessful attempts are made a lien may be filed against the property. For seriously
delinquent accounts, water service may be terminated or the sewer connection may be
plugged.
