Sewer Billing

Residential Sewer Billing

Residential sewer rent is billed annually as a line item on the Combined Town & County tax bill.  For more information on the Combined Town & County tax bill, please visit our Tax Bills & Payments page.

Nonresidential Sewer Billing

All Nonresidential users within the Town of Henrietta are charged sewer rents which are billed quarterly separate from the Town & County tax bill.  The sewer rents are user fees to support the Henrietta Sewer District No. 1 and its extensions in the Town of Henrietta, pursuant to the authority of the Sewer Rent Law of the State of New York (Chapter 765 of the Laws of 1951), and any and all amendments.  These fees allow the Town of Henrietta to fund the maintenance and upkeep of the Henrietta Sewer lines.

Billing Information

All nonresidential sewer bills are mailed quarterly.  Any unpaid sewer rents as of mid-August of each year will be transferred to the following year’s Combined Town & County tax bill as a tax lien.
