The charges for gas services rendered during each calendar month shall be due on the first day of the succeeding calendar month and payable to the city on or before the tenth day of such succeeding calendar month. In the event of non-payment of any gas bill or addition thereto as provided herein on or before the twentieth day of the month in which the same falls due, the gas to such delinquent consumers shall be shut off, subject to the hearing requirements of § 51.13. Whenever the gas is shut off from the service to any consumer or property for any reason, whether voluntary or involuntary, or because of the non-payment of any bill for gas or material or labor properly charged to such consumer, a fee of $2 shall be charged and extended to any delinquent user, or new user, as the case may be and no gas service shall thereafter be rendered to a delinquent user until all such bills and claims, including the fee of $2 shall have been paid in full and discharged. All such payments shall be made at the office of the City Clerk.
