(A) Sewer rental bills shall be due and payable monthly at the office of the City Water Collector. Bills shall be due on the first day of each month and shall be payable by the tenth day of each month. Bills not paid by the twentieth day of each month shall be deemed to be delinquent.
(B) Upon being deemed to be delinquent, as herein defined, the City Clerk shall give a written notice to the customer of such delinquency and shall demand payment immediately. In the event that the bill is not paid within seven days after the sending of said notice, it shall be discretionary with the Superintendent to cut off service at any time; provided, if the delinquent customer is a known welfare recipient, it shall be the duty of the City Clerk to notify the customer and the County Welfare Department by certified mail of the proposed termination.
(C) The Utility Superintendent shall assess an additional fee set by resolution of the City Council and on file at the office of the City Clerk in the event that sewer service is shut off for the nonpayment of any sewer rental bill to compensate the city for the additional hook-up necessary to again provide sewer service to the delinquent customer.
