(A) Any customer whose bill remains unpaid at 5:00 p.m. on the thirtieth day of the month (the “delinquent” date) shall be considered delinquent. Any customer who is delinquent may be contacted by the town in an attempt to collect payment for the delinquent bill. The town may also refer delinquent customers to a collection agency or attorney for collection on a case-by-case basis. Delinquent accounts are also subject to the filing of liens in accordance with the town’s billing procedure.
(B) Delinquent accounts that have been filed as liens can no longer be paid in the normal manner but must be paid to the county in the manner proscribed by the county for lien payments. Lien filings will include reasonable collection and attorney fees.
