(A) Such rates and charges shall be prepared, billed and collected by the town in the manner provided by law and ordinance.
(B) The rates and charges for all users shall be prepared and billed monthly.
(C) The rates and charges may be billed to the tenant or tenants occupying the properties served unless otherwise requested in writing by the owner, but such billing shall in no way relieve the owner from liability in the event payment is not made as herein required. The owners of properties served which are occupied by a tenant or tenants shall have the right to examine the collection records of the town for the purpose of determining whether bills have been paid by such tenant or tenants, provided that such examination shall be made at the office at which said records are kept and during the hours that such office is open for business.
(D) As is provided by statute, all rates and charges not paid when due are hereby declared to be delinquent, and a penalty of 10% of the amount of the rates or charges shall thereupon attach thereto. The past-due date shall be the seventeenth day of the month after the period of service. Bills will be dated and mailed each month.
(E) The town shall, at least annually, in conjunction with a regular billing, notify the user of the rate and that portion of the user charges which are attributable to wastewater treatment services.
