EFFECTIVE JUNE 1ST THE CITY OF LINCOLN IS TAKING OVER BILLING FOR AREA DISPOSAL FOR LINCOLN RESIDENTIAL CUSTOMERS.
The following are the billing procedures for both trash and sewer for Lincoln residents. This only applies to the mandated residential trash service and to all sewer service in the City of Lincoln.
*Sewer and garbage penalty structure will be approved by the City Council on 5/21/2018. Customers will be notified of any changes in the next billing cycle.
Residential Garbage:
Billed monthly with the sewer bill. All charges due on the 20th of each month. No late fee will be added to trash service bill.
After 60 days of no payment trash pickup will be stopped.

The customer must pay in full 30 days from the date of the letter for trash service to be restarted. If the bill is not paid within that time the customer will be fined by Building and Zoning.

Electrical Aggregation Bids
- Details
March 23, 2018- Stone River Group received 4 bids, including one that was the lowest in the State.
Aldermen Hoefle and Welch will bring Stone River's bids to Mayor Seth Goodman, who executes an agreement that will save the on average, $123.49 per year, per household.
One can calculate their savings by taking their electric bill and the number of kWH. If you use 800kWH (considered about the average per household) and multiply by 0.01245, you show a savings of 9.96 or an annual savings of $119.52. The actual average household was a bit higher.
The program is optional. No one has to agree to use this program.
It is an "opt out" program that will automatically be on your bill, unless you exercise your choice not to use it and go with Ameren or any other program you may be using.
