Provider-specific findings
Delinquency research for this provider
The notes below may document a rule or explain a specific public-information limit. Any active notice and direct provider confirmation remain controlling.
- Grace period
- 30 days after the bill date/due period; payments after the delinquent-after date are subject to penalty.
- Late-fee rules
- A 10% penalty is assessed on unpaid balances 30 days after services are rendered or after the bill’s delinquent date. Accounts that remain unpaid and are scheduled for disconnection may also receive a delinquent surcharge and late service fee.
- Shut-off timeline
- Bills are generally due within 30 days of the bill date. After the delinquent date, the 10% penalty applies; if the bill remains unpaid after 60 days from the bill date, the account is subject to disconnection and additional service charges.
- Warning and notice protocol
- The City publishes multilingual water-shutoff policies and states that unpaid accounts scheduled for disconnection receive a delinquent surcharge. The reviewed billing page did not reproduce the full current notice-delivery sequence, so the exact mail/call/text timing remains not publicly documented.
- Reconnection costs
- A reconnection fee and service charge apply after delinquent disconnection, but the reviewed current City materials do not state the dollar amount or an after-hours differential.
