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
- Bills are due on the 21st. The account is late and subject to late-fee and discontinuance provisions if unpaid by the 10th of the following month, giving roughly 18 to 20 calendar days after the due date depending on month length.
- Late-fee rules
- The Caldwell Utility Billing Policy states that a late fee set by City Council resolution is applied on the tenth of the following month. The public policy does not state the current dollar amount in its HTML text; unpaid account balances remain the account holder's responsibility and may be collected through lawful means.
- Shut-off timeline
- Bill mailed on the 1st; due on the 21st; if still unpaid by the 10th of the following month, the account receives a late fee and becomes subject to the City's discontinuance/shutoff policy. The reviewed public policy does not publish a separate fixed number of days between the 10th and the physical shutoff.
- Warning and notice protocol
- The policy says a delinquency-noted statement is mailed if payment has not been received by the next billing date, followed by application of the late fee and shutoff provisions on the 10th. It also describes collection letters and follow-up phone calls for remaining tenant balances; no separate door hanger, text, or automated-call sequence is published in the reviewed material.
