If payment or remittance of any tax is made either: (1) by check and if the financial institution on which the check is drawn refuses to honor the check, or (2) by credit card and as a result of the card being canceled or the charge being placed in dispute or otherwise the amount is uncollectible, then it shall be treated as if no tax payment or remittance was made and a nonsufficient funds check processing fee, or a credit card nonpayment fee, in an amount provided by rule shall apply. This fee shall be in addition to any fine, penalties or interest provided by this chapter or any tax ordinance.
