Budget Billing

Budget billing is available through the City of Marceline.  You have had to live in the same location for 12 months or longer.  The contract will need to be turned in before you can sign up.  The contract will need to be signed off on every 12 months unless you wish to discontinue.  Remember, budget billing does not lower your utility bill.  It does provide a method to better budget your utility expenses.
