When fees for storm water utilities are not paid when due, the Department of Finance may:
(a) Terminate water service to the property;
(b) Forward the account for collection by an outside collection agency;
(c) Transfer the delinquency to any other property owned by the account holder that receives service from the Department of Utilities;
(d) Bring an action at law for the collection of the delinquent amount;
(e) Certify the charges, together with any penalties, to the County Auditor, who shall place the certified amount on the real property tax duplicate of the property served directly or indirectly by the storm water system of the City. The amount certified shall be a lien on the property served from the date placed on the list and duplicate and shall be collected together with real estate taxes by the County Treasurer.
