(A) It is unlawful for any person to deliver, give, or present as payment to the city, or to any agent thereof, any check of draft upon any bank or banking association that the maker or drawer thereof does not have sufficient funds in, or credit with, such bank or banking association for the payment of the same, or that the maker or drawer thereof does not have an account in or with the bank or banking association subject to the check or draft.
(B) In addition to payment of all other amounts due and owing, any person who violates division (A) above shall pay to the city’s Finance Officer a service charge of $40. The payment shall not relieve the person of any criminal liability. If a check is dishonored for any other reason, including, but not limited to, stop payment orders, closed accounts, frozen accounts, or other checks returned “refer to maker,” the maker or drawer of the check shall pay to the Finance Officer a handling fee of $25 in addition to all other amounts due and owing.
