A. Statement: The city shall furnish to each user, or mail to, or leave at his or her residence or usual place of business, a written or printed statement setting forth the amount of irrigation water service charges assessed against each user based upon the contract share size. The statement shall specify the amount of the bill for the water service and the place of payment and date due.
B. Failure To Pay; Contract Holders: An irrigation bill is delinquent if not paid within thirty (30) days of the billing statement date. Monthly statements of notification shall be furnished, which shall include delinquent balance amounts as well as monthly delinquency fees as set forth by resolution. In the event contract holder defaults in any payment due under this water delivery contract, and contract holder's default remains uncured for a period of one hundred eighty (180) days after contract holder's receipt of written notice of its default, the city at its sole discretion shall be entitled to withhold delivery of water and terminate this water delivery contract and/or pursue all other remedies available to the city. In collecting the charges owed, no action taken by the city under this subsection shall relieve contract holder of its obligation to pay any sum owed to the city.
C. Failure To Pay; Lease Holders: An irrigation account is considered a utility account and subject to the provisions of section 8-1-4 of this title. It shall be deemed delinquent if not paid by twelve o'clock (12:00) midnight of the twenty fifth day of the month in which the account is billed, and shall be subject to immediate termination of service if it has not been paid in full by the shutoff date, as defined in subsection 8-1-4B3 of this title.
D. Discontinuance Of Service:
1. Contract Holders: If irrigation water service is thereafter discontinued for failure of the user to make payment, then, before the irrigation water service to the premises shall again be provided, all delinquent irrigation water charges must have been paid to the city in full or arrangements made for their payment in a manner satisfactory to the city council.
2. Leaseholders: Subsection 8-1-4B5 of this title shall govern the reconnection of delinquent leaseholders to the city's irrigation system. (Ord. 2007-33, 12-19-2007)
