Residential Prepay Program

A member who pays a $15.00 membership fee and the connection fee for membership, may choose to participate in the Residential Prepay Program.  The membership of a prepay participant is identical to a regular membership of the Cooperative and carries with it the same rights, responsibilities, and liabilities as the membership for any member not in the Prepay Program.
