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 must be received in the office by the 15th of each month; if the 15th is a weekend or holiday, it must arrive by the preceding business day to avoid the penalty.
Late-fee rules
A 10% penalty applies to the net bill amount when payment is not received by the due date. A returned check may incur up to a $35 fee, and illegal reconnection or meter tampering can create additional charges.
Shut-off timeline
After the 15th, accounts with a previous balance of at least $50 and total bill of at least $100 are locked automatically. To restore service, the full bill and reconnection service fee must be paid; the reviewed page does not specify a prior mailed-notice day count.
Warning and notice protocol
The Association uses the monthly due date and an automatic-lock threshold for qualifying delinquent accounts. The reviewed pages do not expose a separate phone, text, mailed-warning, or door-hanger sequence.
Reconnection costs
Same-day reconnect service is $60.00. The page states that service fees must be paid during business hours at the office or by credit card over the phone; no separate after-hours amount was exposed.
