Provider briefing

How this utility’s billing works

City of Franklin Water Works operates as a municipal department serving Franklin. Customers should use the provider’s current account-specific bill and official customer-service instructions as the final authority for deadlines, balances, and service requests.

The published water-rate framework is described as Base-charge plus uniform volumetric usage pricing. The latest published code schedule reviewed lists a residential base for the first 2,000 gallons and a per-1,000-gallon charge above that amount; city and county service areas have different rates.. Bills are generated monthly; franklin code states that water bills are rendered monthly and are payable within 15 days., and a typical residential cost reference is Using the latest published code schedule reviewed, an inside-city 6,000-gallon household would be approximately $47.24 for water and $34.09 for sewer, or about $81.33 combined. Those dollar amounts were last shown as effective in the older published schedule, so current 2026 confirmation is required before treating them as a current bill estimate.. These descriptions are useful planning benchmarks; actual charges can change with meter size, usage, sewer averaging, local taxes, drought stages, or account-specific fees.

Wastewater and sewer calculation

The published schedule uses a base sewer charge for the first 2,000 gallons and a separate per-1,000-gallon charge above that amount. Separate irrigation meters do not incur sewer charges, and the code provides a limited one-time swimming-pool-fill adjustment under specified documentation rules.

Meter and infrastructure notes

The City offers customer-requested rereads and historical data logging; the first two rereads per year are free, later requests are $50, and data logging is listed at $50 subject to equipment-related exceptions. The reviewed code did not identify AMR/AMI or the normal monthly route schedule.
