Sec. 17-189. - Time and basis of payment.

Sewer charges for property using city water shall be billed and shall become due and payable at the same time as city water bills are due and payable, and nonpayment by such date shall be deemed to be overdue and delinquent at the same time as city water bills are deemed to be overdue and delinquent. Such sewer charges for property using city water shall be based on water consumption during the same billing period as city water bills are based. Sewer charges for property using other than city water shall be due and payable annually in the month of February.

If any payment of water/sewer charges is made by check or electronic fund transfer (EFT) and said check is returned unpaid or said EFT is rejected and the city is assessed a fee from its bank for said bounced check/rejected EFT, a fee in the amount of $25.00 for a bounced check and a fee in the amount of $15.00 for a rejected EFT shall be due and owing by said taxpayer and said payment amount shall be added to the bill due and owing by the taxpayer.
