Responsible Financial Management
One of LOTT’s key objectives is to manage utility finances in an economical, responsible, efficient and sustainable manner. As a public, non-profit organization charged with providing an essential public service, LOTT must manage funds efficiently and responsibly. LOTT patterns its utility management on a private sector model, striving for “true cost accounting” to ensure accurate management and distribution of costs, with checks and balances that offer transparent accountability.
Each year, LOTT prepares a comprehensive financial report that is submitted to the LOTT Board of Directors, the Washington State Auditor’s Office and the Government Finance Officers Association for the previous year. LOTT has been awarded the Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting each year since 2007 for its high standards in reporting.

Questions About Billing
LOTT does not bill sewer customers directly. Instead, bills are issued by the city that provides sewer service to the customer’s property. For billing questions, please contact the city that issues your bill.
