Your new water meter will include a cellular transmitter that will automatically send water usage data from your meter to the City’s billing system. Once your water meter is replaced, it will become part of the City’s Advanced Metering Infrastructure and your water meter will then be read remotely. The data will be stored in the City’s secured billing system and become available through a new online customer portal. The City will no longer need to drive around town each month to collect water meter data, and customers will be able to access near real-time information on their water usage.
