Dedham-Westwood Water District announced on October 23 from Dedham that it will be shutting down its online portal services on Sunday, October 26 at 8 p.m. in preparation to convert to new water billing software that it expects will better serve customers.
All online payments will be temporarily suspended and customers will not be able to use their online portal accounts while the billing software conversion is in progress, says the water district. The conversion is expected to be complete on Saturday, November 1.
Once the conversion is complete, customers will experience several new changes, including new account numbers, a new online portal and payment provider, additional payment options, improved bill layout, and more. The water district notes that a summary of the changes will be sent to all of its customers in the mail this week. The mailing can also be viewed online.
Customers who are currently enrolled in autopay need not re-enroll. Their payments will continue as scheduled the water district’s migration to the new billing and payment system.
Dedham-Westwood Water district notes that it won’t be calling customers to request personal or financial information over the phone. Customers who receive requests for such information should be aware of possible scams.
Customers seeking more information about the conversion can visit: www.dwwd.org/newbilling.

Sunny, with a high of 92 and low of 63 degrees. Sunny during the morning, clear in the afternoon and evening,
This needed to happen 5 years ago. But now the real wrangling begins as MPT will fight to get as much $$$ as they can from the state as possible”just compensation.”
I appreciate all of the work and time that the FS1 Steering Committee and Select Board have put into this process. I've also noticed a big difference in communication around this from the town on Facebook and Westwood Wire. This feels like a much different process than the first time around.
Combing the FS1 vote with the general election makes a ton of sense, and in fact, makes me wonder why not do this will ALL elections instead of holding town elections in April?
Just a reminder that you can e-mail the FS1 Committee at FS1Committee@westwoodma.gov with questions/feedback, etc.
Two different votes for the Project?
First one in October for 'site selection, budget, and funding sources' for a new FS1.
Then, a November vote for 'designing, constructing, equipping, and furnishing' of a new FS1.
Seems repetitive.
