You can also be redirected to the channel by clicking here: Town of Sellersburg – YouTube

The below link is the Sellersburg CCR for calendar year 2022. If you would like a printed copy, they are available at the Sellersburg Town Hall and Sellersburg Utility Billing Office.
Swimming season is quickly approaching. Because your wastewater (sewer) bill is directly related to your water usage, the Sellersburg Wastewater Utility will issue a credit for filling up your pool.
Contact the Town’s Billing Office by calling (812)246-3821 opt. 1, to reserve one of the Town issued meters. Adjustments cannot be issued without the use of this meter. The number of meters available is limited so we ask you please plan head. Simply follow the steps per Town of Sellersburg Ordinance 52.02 outlined below. If you choose to wait until June, there is no need to apply for a credit using this outline as the Summer Averaging Program begins June 1st and runs through September (Ordinance 52.01)
52.02 – Adjustments For The Filling Up Of Swimming Pools With Water
Any wastewater customer (the “Customer”) of the Town of Sellersburg, Indiana may rent a garden hose meter from the Town’s Billing Office for a 72-hour time frame to track the amount of gallons used when filling their swimming pool that will ultimately by-pass the wastewater treatment system of the Town.
Process:
1.) The wastewater customer shall visit Town’s Billing Office and execute a rental agreement, which is incorporated herewith, for a garden hose meter from the Town free of charge.
2.) The Customer shall return the meter within 72 hours and is responsible for the full replacement cost of the meter should it be returned in an inoperable manner.
3.) Failure to return the meter within 72 hours will result in a $50 per day late fee for the first two (2) days after the expiration of the 72 hour and $100 per day late fee thereafter to be paid immediately.
The water usage indicated on the meter upon its return will be calculated and applied as a wastewater adjustment on the next available billing cycle.

(B) In the event that water usage is less during the summer months as compared to the winter months, then billing shall be based upon the actual water usage in said months.
(C) The term RESIDENTIAL USER shall mean and apply to each lot, parcel of real estate or building which is occupied and used solely as a residence.
