Water Billing

About

The Finance Department processes payments for water and sewer bills. The City of Westland services approximately 26,000 customers with water from the Great lakes Water Authority (GLWA). Water meters connect wirelessly to the City to provide quicker reading of usage and alerting of any issues.

Automatic Water Bill Payment Service

Our Automatic Bill Payment service allows your water and sewer bill to be automatically paid from any participating bank or credit union account. You will receive your statement at least 20 days before it is due. The bill amount will be automatically withdrawn from your chosen account on the due date. Adequate funds must be available in your account to cover the automatic payment. Insufficient funds will be subject to the same fee as a non-sufficient-funds check and the normal late-payment penalty will apply.

We will continue to read your meter and send you a statement on a bimonthly basis.  If there are questions please contact us at least ten days before the due date.

Starting Automatic Bill Payments

To begin automatic bill payment please complete the Authorization for Automatic Water Bill Payments Form (PDF) and return it to the Water Billing Department.

Note: It may take up to two billing cycles before automatic payments begin.
