Deposits
Renters must pay a $65.00 deposit for service. Homeowners are not required to make a deposit.
The City will hold the deposit until the renter moves out and requests that service be removed from the renter's name. The City will then apply the deposit toward the customer's account. Any balance will be refunded to the customer. If the deposit does not cover the bill, the City will proceed to collect the balance via debt collection.
Renters can pay their deposit online via the City's bill pay site. If renters cannot pay online, they will have to bring payment to City Hall at 801 West Ave. NW, Lenoir, NC 28645.
