What is an actual vs estimated water meter reading? 

Estimated water meter reading: If you are a metered customer your water meter measures the volume of water used. We will calculate your Water Charge and Wastewater Charge based on the measured volume of water used. When you receive your bill, it shows what the meter reading was and whether it was an actual reading or an estimated meter reading. 

Actual will show when we have a meter reading to use for billing. If we cannot get a meter reading, we make an estimate based on past usage. When this happens, we call it an estimated meter reading. The next time we get a meter reading, we will update your account with the actual meter reading, on your next bill you may notice a minor adjustment to the charges to correct any difference.
