How do I read my utility bill?

The town of Log Lane Village only bills for water, sewer, trash. We do not provide electricity, gas, and or internet. Those are third party vendors (such as Xcel energy, charter, and spectrum). Do not confuse Xcel energy and Xpress bill pay as the same service. Xcel energy provide gas and electric to citizens of log lane and Xpress bill pay is the towns platform to receive water bill payments. Xcel energy has their own billing system not associated with Xpress bill pay or associated with the Town of Log Lane Village.

Our bills go on 4" x 5"  post cards mailed out individually. If there is a newsletter to be sent, the bill will be in a regular sized white envelope to include our newsletter, information and your bill. Please read the following to understand your billing.
