Murray Municipal Utilities shall mail a statement on or before the first day of the month on a monthly basis to each person charged with refuse collection, removal, recycling collection or disposal during the preceding month, but failure to receive any statement for monthly charges shall not be grounds for avoiding payment. Such statement shall be mailed on the same bill with the usual statement for natural gas, water and sewerage services. If the fee, rate, or charge for any monthly service is not paid within fifteen (15) days after the same is due, the amount thereof shall then be delinquent, a 5% penalty added thereto, and recovered by the city in any appropriate action. On the failure of any person receiving such service to pay for the same when due, the city may discontinue such service without notice.
