Gwinnett estimating some water bills due to meter-reader shortage

Some Gwinnett County Department of Water Resources customers may find their next bill has been estimated.

Like many other industries, the county’s meter-reading contractor is having staffing challenges. To maintain a monthly billing cycle, Gwinnett will be estimating some residential water bills based on the previous month’s usage.

If a customer’s bill has been estimated, it will be noted on the bill. Any difference in actual water use and the estimate will be reconciled on the next month’s bill which will be based on the actual water meter reading.
