Fees/Payments
A service fee of $50 for residential and $75 for commercial/business accounts is
required when the resident/business owner applies for the service.
There is a $25 returned check charge.
We take Credit Card payments by phone. There is a service charge of $3.00 or 3.50%
of the bill which ever is greater.
We take Debit Card payments at the office only. There is a service charge of $2.50.
The service charge fees are charged by the card process company not the City of La Vergne.
Final Notices
We no longer send out final notices prior to the water being shut off. There
is a $25 charge for water being turned off for non-payment. It can be turned on
after hours (4:30 p.m.) by calling 793-5932; but only if the request is made prior
to 8:00pm.
However, it costs an $25 additional fee to have this done. If they have it turned
on after hours, they MUST come to the Water Department in City Hall by
9 a.m. the next day or service will be turned back off. The second time
the service is turned off, it will not be restored until payment is made.
