Utility Billing
IMPORTANT CHANGES TO YOUR UTILITY BILL COMING IN 2025
Beginning in February, 2025, the City of Newport Beach will transition to monthly utility billing. This includes charges for water, sewer, recycling, and more.
You will receive a utility bill, known as the Municipal Services Statement, 12 times a year instead of six. The transition will begin in February and be completed by March (your exact transition date will depend on your current billing cycle).
- If your account is set up for automatic payments, no additional steps are needed. You will be charged automatically each month, five days before your due date.

Benefits of monthly billing include:
- Consistent payment cycles with all other bills.
- Reduces late payments with a monthly cycle.
- Help promote water conservation by allowing customers to more quickly detect leaks or other increased water use.
