The City of Geneva has three meter readers that read both the electric and water for our residents. The meter readers carry electronic devices that are downloaded to the billing system and billed each month. The City is in the process of changing out meters in areas to accommodate an electronic retrieval system. This system will enable the meter reader to simply walk by your home and electronically pick up the read.Water Division

Occasionally the meter reader is unable to read your meter due to over grown bushes, locked gates, obstruction to the meter area, or a dog in the yard. We ask that you read your water meter in the basement for the most accurate reading of your meter.Water Division
