Rates and charges shall be prepared, billed and collected by the town in the manner provided by law and ordinance.
(A) The rates and charges may be billed to the tenant or tenants occupying the properties served, unless otherwise requested in writing by the owner, but the billing shall in no way relieve the owner from the liability in the event payment is not made as herein required. The owners of properties served, which are occupied by a tenant or tenants, shall have the right to examine the collection records of the town for the purpose of determining whether bills have been paid by the tenant or tenants, provided that the examination shall be made at the office at which the records are kept and during the course that the office is open for business.
(B) All rates and charges not paid when due are hereby declared to be delinquent and a late payment charge as set forth in § 52.37 of this chapter shall thereupon attach thereto. The time at which the rates or charges shall be paid shall be determined by the town, in its discretion, and be printed on the bill.
