D. Billing: The city council finds that the city's solid waste collection system, storm sewer system, sanitary sewer system and culinary water system are interrelated services that are part of a unified city plan to provide for the health, safety and welfare of the city and its residents in an environmentally responsible manner. Therefore, the solid waste collection utility fee shall be included on the city's regular monthly utility bill for any given property. The fee shall be deemed a civil debt owed to the city by the person or entity paying for the city utility services provided to the property. Failure to pay any portion of the utility bill may result in termination of water service. Billing and payment procedures to include delinquency are identified in section 9-1-9 of this code.
