Payment in accordance with billings shall be made not later than the billing date established for the account. In addition to the charges provided, there shall be a late charge as set by the Council and as may be set from time to time for payments made after the fifteenth day after the billing date. When a charge is more than 15 days past due it shall be considered delinquent. It shall be the duty of the Clerk-Treasurer to endeavor to promptly collect delinquent accounts. All delinquent accounts shall be certified to the Clerk-Treasurer who shall prepare an assessment roll each year providing for assessment of the delinquent amounts, plus interest at the rate of 8% per annum from the date they become delinquent, against the respective properties served. This assessment roll shall be delivered to the Council for adoption on or before October 10 of each year. Such action may be optional or subsequent to taking legal action to collect delinquent accounts.
