In July residents will see a new line item on their utility bills and a slight increase in their electricity bills to fund the City’s newly created Street Surface Maintenance Program. 

Single-family homes, which includes condos or row houses, will be charged $3.35 per month on their utility bills under the line item “STREET SURFACE MAINTENANCE FEE.” Apartment buildings will be billed $2.10 per month per unit. 

A 1.5% “Privilege Tax” will begin being assessed on July PGE statements. The average electric bill in Milwaukie is $70. This new tax will raise this average bill by $1. 

If you have questions about the “street maintenance fee,” contact Alex Campbell at (503) 786-7608 or campbella@ci.milwaukie.or.us. Questions about your regular bill should be directed to the City Finance Department at (503) 786-7525 or finance@ci.milwaukie.or.us.

For more information please refer to the "Street Surface Maintenance Program" of the home page's "Projects Underway in Milwaukie" section.
