Average Billing
The
City of Perry offers this program to help the customer budget for
utility expenses by allowing the customer to pay a monthly payment
based on average annual use. This Program uses the current
bill and outstanding balance added to the previous 11 months to get
an average amount that the customer pays. Recalculation occurs at
least every four months or whenever the account balance is 1 ½ time
over or under the current calculated average monthly utility payment
plan. In order to participate in this Program, the customer must:
1.
Enroll in the Program during the months of
October through December (enrollment is not permitted at any other
time of the year).
2.
Be a utility
customer of the City of Perry for at least one year at the same
address prior to the date of signing up and have a zero balance.
3.
Have had no
late fees assessed and/or return checks or drafts for at least one
year prior to date of signing up.
4.
Must remain
enrolled in the Program for at least one year from the date of
signing up.
5.
Make monthly
payments before the 5:00pm on the 20th of each month.
Automatic
Bank Draft
The customer authorizes the utility to
make automatic bank withdrawals to pay the customer’s utility
account during each billing cycle. On this Program utility
bills will be withdrawn on or soon after the 12th of each
month.

Perry again capitalizes on its Pioneering Spirit in creating a
"Community of the Future".
City
of Perry has been selected as a "Community of the Future" by the
U.S. Department of Energy Denver Regional Office and Oklahoma
Department of Commerce
What is a" community of the future"?
A community that agrees to coordinate their
programs and resources to more effectively advance the use of clean
energy technologies and practices. Perry is one of only three
cities selected to be a "Community of the Future" in the twelve
state area covered by the Denver Regional office of the U.S.
Department of Energy. Working with the Denver Regional Office and
the Oklahoma Department of Commerce, Perry will serve as a role
model for other cities across America.
Purpose:
The purpose of this program is to establish a
collaboration to help the City of Perry-create jobs, reduce
pollution, save money and achieve other key goals by increasing
their energy efficiency and use of renewable energy technologies.
How can I benefit from living in a "community
of the future"?
-
Save 50% or more in annual heating and
cooling costs by utilizing a geothermal, heat pump.
-
Save an additional 20% to 30% per year in
electricity costs by using energy star labeled (see opposite
