(A) Sanitary sewer bills and notices will be mailed to each parcel or premises based on the sanitary sewer rates established by the Township Board for the period immediately preceding the date of the bill to the customer at the address listed on the application, unless a change of address has been filed in writing at the business office of the township. The township shall not otherwise be responsible for delivery of any bill or notice, nor will the customer be excused from non-payment of a bill or from any performance required in the notice. The township may send a combined bill for sanitary sewer rates and water rates, and funds received by the township in payment of such combined billing shall be applied first to sanitary sewer rates and then to water rates.
(B) Bills for sanitary sewer services are due and payable at the business office of the township or to any designated agent of the township on the date specified on the bill or notice. As the township combines its water and sanitary sewer fees and charges into a single bill, all bills not paid when due shall be deemed delinquent and shall be subject to a late charge as more fully set forth in § 51.007(B)(7) of the Kochville Township, Michigan Code of Ordinances in addition to the remedies set forth in § 54.14(G) of this chapter.
(C) Where the water or sanitary sewer service supplied to a customer has been discontinued for non-payment of delinquent bill, the township reserves the right to request a nominal sum to be placed on deposit with the township for the purpose of establishing or maintaining any customer's credit. The reconnection will not be made until after all delinquent bills and other charges, if any, owed by the customer to the township have been paid.
