The new year brings changes to water billing procedures for Elgin residents, as the city begins issuing water bills on a monthly basis rather than every-other month. Residents will notice a new refuse collection fee of $13.25 and, if living in an applicable neighborhood, the future leaf rake-out fee of $2.00 per month.
These changes in fees were adopted by the City Council on December 21, 2011 as part of the 2012 budget. If there are any questions pertaining to this new billing process, please contact the finance department at 847-931-5630.
