(a) The Director of Public Service and Safety is hereby authorized to establish a gross rate and a net rate for the regular billing of the Water and Waste Water Department, the net rate to be computed by applying the latest billing rate established by ordinance and the gross rate to be computed as the net rate plus ten percent of the net billing.
(b) The net billing amount shall be paid within twenty-one days of the date of billing, and if not paid within that time, the gross billing shall be the amount paid by the customer. The gross billing shall also apply to those instances wherein partial payments of billings are made.
(c) The Director of Public Service and Safety is hereby empowered to remit the gross billing in unusual cases where extenuating circumstances would make the imposition of the gross billing unfair.
(d) No such gross billing shall be imposed or levied upon any governmental unit or agency presently under formal contract with the City for water or waste water service.
