Water Billing Update!

Water billing update:

The March Invoices were mailed out on March 6, 2023, and an error was noted with the due date. It shows that the due date is 03/29/23 but they are due ON/BY 04/01/23. It is important to get those payments in BY/ON the 1st of every month. When mailing in a payment please make sure it reaches us by the 1st. For your convenience there is a gray payment drop box outside of the village hall entrance. If possible, could you put your account number in the memo field of your check or money order. Payments are collected from the box on a regular basis and several times during the billing cycle. At times a sign is posted on the drop box to advise you that the cutoff has occurred, and a late fee may apply. 

Please understand, the billing process is lengthy, and my schedule is altered at times so billing can be completed in a timely manner. Payments can be made on the village website through the EPAY payment portal. Even if you make an electronic payment on the 1st of the month it is on time. There is a small convenience fee that is collected by the State of Illinois for using the system.

After the payments are entered into the database, 10-day final notices are processed, printed and mailed out. The system locks me out of processing any more payments until the total billing process is completed. The database is exported and loaded into a laptop so the meters can be read automatically. Some resident’s meters are working but the internal battery has stopped so they do not send out an electronic signal. We are asking for your assistance. Look at your invoice and will see an E by the reads and it will also show the word estimated on your invoice. If you are being estimated for usage it can either be overestimated or underestimated. This creates a problem because if you are underestimated you may get a higher bill when we get an actual read. If you are overestimated, you may end up with a credit on your account. We do not give refunds unless a house is sold, or you move.  If estimated and you have access to where your water meter is located, lift the cover and using your smart phone take a photo of the meter face and attach it to an email, Send it to wsbilling@villageofhebron.org  Please make sure that the numbers are legible in the photo.  It is important that those readings are sent in before the end of the current month. In the email, please include your name, address and phone number.  I will reply so you know it was received. If you need assistance with your meter call Frank during normal business hours at (815) 403-7594 to make an appointment to have your meter checked. Replacement meters have been on backorder for awhile and we are hoping to get that resolved soon.

Thank you for your assistance and understanding in this matter.

Priorities For Storm Restoration
 

  • Through switching and repair of high voltage transmission lines and substations, we restore service to the largest number of customers.
  • We restore power to facilities critical to public health and safety including hospitals, police and fire stations, water reclamation plants, and communication systems.
  • We dispatch crews to make repairs to equipment that will return service to the largest number of customers in the least amount of time. These include major feeder trunk lines, high-density housing projects, and large neighborhoods.
  • Finally, we restore power to smaller neighborhoods and individual services.

NEW: Receive Outage Alerts on Your Mobile Phone

ComEd has instituted a two-way text messaging capability that allows customers to text their outage to ComEd and enables ComEd to text restoration information back to customers.
The expanded outage alert text message program will provide added convenience for customers and help improve their experience. The new program enhancements:

Public Safety Awareness

Public safety is paramount during storms and ComEd encourages the public to remember to take the following precautions:

  • Anyone encountering a downed power line is urged to immediately call ComEd at 1-800-EDISON1 (1-800-334-7661) and report the location. Spanish-speaking customers should call 1-800-95-LUCES (1-800-955-8237).
  • Never approach a downed power line. Always presume a power line is energized and extremely dangerous.
  • Check on elderly and other sensitive family members and neighbors to ensure their safety and make alternate arrangements, as it may be some time before their power is restored.

ComEd also offers the following suggestions for customers experiencing a prolonged outage:

  • Turn off all appliances including your furnace, water heater, and water pump.
  • Leave a lamp on so you can know when power has been restored.
  • Keep freezer and refrigerator doors closed and open them only when necessary. Food can stay frozen for 36 to 48 hours in a fully loaded freezer, if the door remains closed. A half-full freezer can generally keep food frozen for 24 hours.
  • Customers who are on medical support equipment are strongly encouraged to evacuate to a place where they can be comfortable and safe.
