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.
- Late-fee rules
- The current published service-charge summary lists a $22.89 notice-of-intent-to-discontinue fee, a $48.17 meter lock for nonpayment, $27.69 per delinquent water turn-off, $36.12 per turn-on and $180.64 after-hours restoration. The reviewed current payment page does not publish a separate percentage late fee.
- Shut-off timeline
- A complete day-by-day nonpayment calendar is not exposed on the current accessible billing page. The City publishes a notice-of-intent fee, meter-lock fees and turn-off/turn-on charges; California SB 998 requires qualifying low-income residential customers to receive an additional 60-day grace period when a payment arrangement is in place.
- Warning and notice protocol
- The 2025 service-charge summary identifies a notice of intent to discontinue service, while California's SB 998 policy requires written notice and payment-arrangement information for residential nonpayment. The reviewed City pages do not enumerate a fixed sequence of automated calls, texts or door hangers.
- Reconnection costs
- The published 2025/2026 service-charge summary lists a $36.12 delinquent turn-on during ordinary processing and $180.64 for after-hours service restoration. A $48.17 meter-lock charge and any outstanding balance may also apply.
