Wastewater and sewer calculation
Sanitary sewer billing combines a meter-size base facility charge, a consumption charge based on metered water use, and the Miami-Dade WASD wholesale sewer treatment/disposal pass-through. At 5,000 gallons per month on a 3/4-inch residential meter, the FY2026 sample is $10.11 base, $25.50 consumption, and $39.90 WASD pass-through, totaling $75.51. The public schedule does not describe a winter averaging formula.
Meter and infrastructure notes
The replacement portal provides account-level water and sewer usage by meter and lets customers monitor usage history, but the City’s public customer pages do not specify whether the installed fleet is AMI, AMR, or manually read, nor do they publish an hourly transmission interval. Bills are monthly and the portal exposes current and past meter usage; customers should keep meter access available for service orders and final readings.
