§ 11.701. Water and Sewer Service  


Latest version.
  • Checks received for payment and returned by the bank because the account has insufficient funds or does not exist, etc., will create additional staff work to notify the customer and arrange for payment. The customer service section is hereby directed to assess a thirty dollar ($30.00) handling charge for all checks returned because they cannot be processed for payment.

    The city retains the right to terminate water service immediately if the customer does not pay the account in full. In addition, the staff shall pursue all remedies available by law to recover the monies due when it becomes apparent that in-house efforts to collect for returned checks are not successful.
