Westport provides water and wastewater utility services to our residents. You will need to establish your new account during normal business hours. 8 A.M. to 5 P.M.
The office is not open on Saturdays or Sundays. The office location is 207 Johnson Ave, just off of Main Street and behind the Post Office.
The water and wastewater utilities are based on the metered number of gallons of water used. There is a minimum bill which is charged for usage from 0-2500 gallons. All usage over 2500 gallons is billed by metered gallons. Your bill will be mailed on the first of each month and is due on the 20th. Late payment penalties (approx. 10% of the total bill) are applied on the 21st, and water is discontinued for non-payment if the past month’s payment is not received by the second Monday of the following month. There is a reconnect fee of $60 if your water is shut off for non-payment.
Snowbirds can request to have their service discontinued through the winter months and reactivated in the spring so that they are not billed the base rate while they are gone. Reconnection is $30.
Please call us at 812-591-3500 if you have any questions.
