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
- Payment is due 28 days after mailing; the City does not state a separate grace period after that due date.
- Late-fee rules
- A late fee equal to 5% of the total amount due and owing is assessed when payment is not received by the due date. Postmark dates are not used. Returned checks incur a $30 fee and can also trigger the late fee if they leave the account past due.
- Shut-off timeline
- The City confirms that it will shut off water for nonpayment when a disconnect notice is issued, but the reviewed 2026 billing page does not provide a universal day-count from due date to physical lockoff. Unpaid balances may also be certified and assessed against the property as a tax after the published notice/hearing process.
- Warning and notice protocol
- Customers receive the bill and, when applicable, a disconnect notice. Bloomington's public rules emphasize contacting Utility Billing at 952-563-8726 as soon as a disconnect notice is received; they do not document a color-coded mailer, automated call sequence, text keyword, or door-hanger schedule.
