Nothing changed much. You used 19 therms this period against 18 in June.
Charges and taxes for the period; any previous balance is not part of the change.
Natural gas cost
The purchased gas adjustment — what we pay for the gas itself, passed through at no markup — rose from $0.3294 to $0.3421 a therm.
Taxes and fees
The city franchise fee and taxes are a percentage of the charges above, so they move with them.
Weather
Neither period needed much heating, so weather does not explain the difference.
Budget billing
About $58.00 a month, from the last twelve bills, settled once a year.
Payment arrangement
Spread this bill over the next few without collection activity.
Energy assistance referral
Local agencies; a pledge pauses collections while it is processed.
Emergency line for anything that smells like gas: (979) 555-0199.

Starting from the Jun 2025 bill, the engine re-prices it at the volume the weather predicts, then at the volume used, then swaps in this period’s gas cost, weather adjustment, and each base rate in turn. Every step is priced line by line and rounded the way the biller writes lines, so the steps add to the real difference — +$0.64 — to the cent. It reproduces every issued bill in the system exactly.
