No, the payment date is based upon how the city has been divided. There are 4 different sections within the city, and the due dates are set by section. The due dates are either the 14th or the 28th of each month. Your due date is indicated on the utility bill. It is important to remember that your bill will be due on the same day every month. Failure to pay by the due date will result in a 10% late fee (except when the due date falls on a weekend or holiday). When your due date falls on a weekend or an observed holiday, the bill due date becomes the first business day after.Utility Billing & Collection

The City of Troy Chapter 909.03 states that the property owner is responsible for the payment of any and all charges billed for service at the owner’s property, whether the account for such charges for the property is carried in the tenant’s or another’s name. The signing of an indemnification card is required by the city, and the owner must sign this card for the service to be placed in the tenant’s name. This also serves as notification to the owner that they are responsible for any charges regarding the service at their property.Utility Billing & Collection

Adjustments for water leaks / plumbing problems may be made with the following general guidelines:Utility Billing & Collection
- The problem must be repaired and proof of repair must be provided in writing. No adjustments will be considered until the problem is fixed and proof of repairs is provided.
- Adjustments are limited to the last two meter readings or last two monthly billings. No adjustments will be made for problems that were not fixed for longer periods (i.e. water leak has been ongoing for one year and has just now been repaired). Only the last two months will be reviewed for possible adjustment.
- Adjustment will be for the sewer portion of the bill only. No adjustment will be considered for water which has been expended.The sewer portion of the bill will be considered for adjustment, since, in most cases, the problem would have resulted in no outflow through the sewer system for water expended.
