Water Department

The City of Pevely Water Department is responsible for maintaining five wells, five water tanks, three booster pump stations, fire hydrants, water lines, and water samples and treatments. Normal working hours are Monday through Friday, 7:00 AM – 3:30 PM with adjustments made during the summer months.

Utility rates are set by ordinance and are increased 1% each year on the first billing cycle. Copies of those ordinances can be found below. 

We just want to let our residents know that we do not currently offer any type of online bill pay for our Utility Department. The only current options to pay your water, sewer, and trash bill are in person via cash, check, or credit card, over the phone with a credit card, or via ACH withdrawal which must be set up with our clerks at City Hall. It has recently come to our attention that an outside website is claiming to host our online payments, however, this is NOT true. Please do not pay your bills with any outside company! If you find that you have questions, please contact our Utility Clerks at 636-475-4452

As the temperature drops, it's important to prevent the water lines from freezing. To avoid any inconvenience, please keep a small, constant drip going in your home and keep cabinet doors open if temperatures get below freezing. This is to prevent water lines from freezing and bursting. If the water lines freeze, it will be nearly impossible for our workers to defrost them. Thank you for your cooperation in ensuring that we have an uninterrupted water supply during the winter season.
Water Emergency After-Hours and Weekend Charge
Please be informed that homeowners will be charged $75 on their next utility bill if our employees are called in after hours or on the weekend for any kind of water emergency. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in this matter and thank you for your continued support.
