A. Statements: The city treasurer shall keep a record of all such notices of indebtedness and shall mail to the debtor a statement or a bill for the sum, directing that the amounts due thereon be paid, and the treasurer shall use all reasonable efforts to collect the same.
B. Delinquent Accounts: In case any claims due the city are not paid within thirty (30) days of the date when the city treasurer mails a statement of claim as hereinbefore provided, the city treasurer shall send a statement of such claims to the city attorney stating that the same are past due, together with a statement of all information possessed by her or him concerning the same. The city attorney shall take such action as the city attorney deems appropriate to effect the collection of all such claims.
