The City Clerk or Recorder shall be charged with the duty of mailing a statement on a monthly, quarterly or yearly basis to each person or business establishment to be charged with the municipal fee hereby imposed for the fee due for the preceding month, quarter or year, but failure to mail any statement for monthly, quarterly or yearly charges shall not be grounds for avoiding payment. A statement shall be mailed by the City Clerk or Recorder at least as frequently as once each year, but, at the discretion of the City Clerk or Recorder, a statement may be mailed each month or quarter and any such statements may be consolidated by the City Clerk with statements for other municipal services due from such person or business establishment. If a monthly statement is mailed by the City Clerk or Recorder, it may be mailed each month on a date selected by the City Clerk or Recorder but the City Clerk or Recorder shall render the monthly billing to such person or business establishment in a uniform manner so that each monthly bill is mailed at intervals of approximately thirty (30) days. If a quarterly statement is mailed by the City Clerk or Recorder, it shall be mailed within thirty (30) days after the end of the quarter. The City Clerk or Recorder is further authorized to collect the municipal service fee herein imposed on a yearly basis.
