Schertz will begin measuring winter water use for sewer averaging on Nov. 1 for customers billed on the 10th and Nov. 15 for customers billed on the 25th.
The city's sewer-averaging notice gives each billing cycle its own end date, so customers should check when they receive their bill.

The city averages water-use readings from the applicable winter period, then applies its sewer rates to that monthly average. The notice does not compare an individual customer's coming charge with their current charge.
