Winter sewer month calculations in effect
Colleyville uses the winter months' average of December,
January, and February for sewer calculations on residential
customers. The city averages individual household
consumption during these months to set residential sewer
rates for the year. For households that have no preceding
winter months' usage with the city, the city uses an
average of 9,000 gallons as set by city ordinance. During
the winter months, residents should be aware of all
unnecessary water usage, dripping faucets, leaking toilets,
etc. to minimize their monthly sewer bill for the following
months.
Why does Colleyville average winter month's sewer?

Waste water averaging provides a measure that is
generally reflective of the amount of water that goes
directly into the sanitary sewer system from each property.
The city believes this is the most equitable way to
determine the sewer volume.
December, January, and February are used to calculate the
sewer average, as that time period provides a true picture
of interior water use when water consumption is not
impacted by outdoor water use such as filling swimming
pools and lawn sprinkler systems.
Winter averaging allows customers the opportunity to lower
their monthly sewer bill by reducing water use during
winter months and keeps the sewer charges consistent
each month.
Leaf recycling returns Dec. 9
Community Waste Disposal's
special leaf recycling
collection routes continue
this Saturday, Dec. 9.
The collections begin at 10
a.m. to allow additional time
for residents to rake and bag
leaves.
To participate, residents just
need to set out leaves
bagged in paper Kraft bags
on the designated collection
days. These bags are available at many hardware stores.
CWD will still collect leaves in plastic bags set out on
regular garbage collection days but these will just go to the
landfill. If residents set out Kraft bags for leaf recycling a
few days early CWD will leave them for the Saturday
collections. With that in mind, residents should be aware of
and comply with their Homeowner Association's policies.
The next days for leaf recycling are Jan. 6, and Jan. 13.
CWD will also pick up and recycle Christmas trees on those
collection days in January. Just remember to remove all
decorations.
