Stillwater Utilities Authority (SUA)

The Stillwater Utilities Authority (SUA) was established to operate and maintain the city utilities system, which provides electric; trash and recycling collection; and water and wastewater collection to Stillwater residents, businesses and industries.

The SUA is a public trust operating under a trust indenture dated April 1, 1979, and amended by an Amendment to Trust Indenture dated November 1, 1980, and further amended by a Second Amendment to Trust Indenture dated March 24, 2014. It was created by a city ordinance with the City of Stillwater as the beneficiary.

The mayor and city council serve as trustees and govern the authority. The trustees approve the SUA's rates and budget. In accordance with the Trust Indenture that established the Authority and the General Fund Transfer Policy adopted by the Trustees on June 6, 2016, the SUA transfers surplus funds to the City's general fund, which the City uses for various services that benefit the residents of Stillwater. 

SUA trustees generally meet the first and third Mondays of the month in the Council Hearing Room at the Municipal Building, 723 S. Lewis St., at 5:30 p.m.
