Town Provided Utilities

The Town of Severance provides water, wastewater, stormwater, and transportation utility services for residential and business users in the area. Customers are billed monthly by the last business day of every month. Payment is due by the 15th of the following month.

Payments may be made online by one of the following:

  • Online by clicking the “Pay My Water Bill Online” link above
  • In-person at Severance Town Hall
  • By mail addressed to Town of Severance, P.O. Box 339, Severance, CO 80546.
  • After-hours, you may leave payments in the utility bill drop box on the north side of Town Hall.
Delinquent Balances & Disconnection of Service

Utility bills are always due on the 15th of each month.

An unpaid balance on an account on the 16th of the month will be subject to a 3% charge.

Accounts with an outstanding balance from the prior billing cycle shall receive, by mail, a delinquency notice and pending disconnection of utility service. This notice will be assessed a late charge fee of $15.00 and reflect the amount due and the final payment/shut-off date.

If no payment has been received 24 hours before the shut-off date, the Town will place a notice on the property indicating the total amount due and the date and time the shut-off will occur. This notice will be assessed a Red Tag fee of $30.00.

When disconnection of service occurs, the account may be subject to a reconnect fee of $50.00. The account balance, in total, must be paid before restoring your water service.

Residential Water Rates

Water meters are read each month (generally the 20th of each month) to determine your water usage.

Please note the residences in the subdivisions of Belmont Farms, Bridal Hill/Saddler Ridge, Casa Loma, Golden Eagle Acres, Hidden Valley Farm, and Soaring Eagle Ranch receive their water from North Weld County Water District.

The 2024 water rates that began in the February billing cycle are:

  • $34.42 base fee
  • $8.01 per 1000 gallons
  • $15.93 per 1000 gallons for usage over the annual allotment

Please Note: Additional water surcharges and plant investment fees will be assessed on accounts that exceed usage classification. The annual water allotment is from the November billing period to the October billing period of the following year. The allotment on your account may vary due to the usage classification of your property.

Residential Wastewater (Sewer) Rate

Wastewater rates are calculated each March based on the customer’s average water usage during December, January, and February billing cycles.  Typically, these months have limited irrigation and best reflect the amount of water used that is processed through the wastewater system.
