In accordance with the City of Plantation Municipal Ordinance 2484 Section 26-186 and Section 26-211, pertaining to the subject of City Utility Rates, a monthly base facility charge shall be billed for service availability to each individually metered residential, commercial, sprinkler, multiple family account including mobile home parks serviced by a master meter. If sprinkler service is provided by a connection to the city’s water distribution system which also provides for the domestic or general water use, then no additional base facility charge will be imposed. If the sprinkler service represents a separate and distinct connection to the city’s water distribution system, the commercial service and sprinkler service base facility charges shall apply.
To initiate utility service, a $45.00 non-refundable application fee, along with the required deposit and supporting documentation (see the New Account Checklist below), is required to begin the Utility Service Account opening process.
Please contact Utilities Customer Service at (954) 797-2290 to obtain your required deposit amount and to confirm the type of utility services provided at the property. Some properties are serviced for both water and sewer, while others are serviced for water only. Deposit amounts are based on the size of the meter at the property and are outlined below.
When opening an account in person, deposits and application fees must be paid by cash, check, or money order. For online submissions, the required deposit check must be submitted to the office within two (2) weeks of the application date.
In addition, applicants may be required to satisfy any outstanding or unpaid utility account balances associated with the applicant or with other customers at the service address within the City of Plantation prior to service activation.
