Water bills shall be due and payable every three months as billed, at the office of the Division of Utilities on or before the seventeenth day of the month. If not paid when due, a ten percent (10%) penalty shall be added to the bill. If the bill is not paid in full by the date specified in the disconnection notice, the water supply shall be shut off.
If water is shut off for nonpayment, a charge of seventy dollars ($70.00) shall be made for turning the water on again.
In the event a consumer submits a check to the City as payment for water service or refuse collection and such check is dishonored by the bank upon which it was drawn, the City shall add any bank charges it incurs by reason of such dishonorment as additional charges to the consumer’s account with the City.
