City of Sioux Falls to Restart Utility Service Disconnections Process

On March 16, 2020, the City of Sioux Falls suspended all residential service disconnects and started to waive all late fees on utilities to help ease the financial burden of those customers affected by the pandemic. The City of Sioux Falls will restart the utility disconnect process for non-payment of city-owned utilities effective September 1, 2020.

Our Utility Billing team is working closely with those customers who are financially impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and will do everything we can to avoid disconnecting utility services, including helping with establishing payment plans. It is imperative, however, that those customers call Utility Billing at (605)-367-8131 to work out an acceptable 1-6 month payment plan.

Residents impacted by COVID-19 who need financial assistance should consider the many programs available at the state, county, and local levels. More information about these programs can be obtained by calling 211. For further information on payment options, call the City of Sioux Falls Utility Billing Office at (605)-367-8131.
