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 within 30 days from the billing date. The Water Division may discontinue service when the bill is not paid within 40 days of the billing date, provided written notice is given 10 days before termination.
- Late-fee rules
- The reviewed rules state that penalties apply when bills are not paid within 40 days of the billing date, but they do not state the current percentage or fixed amount. Failure to receive a bill does not relieve the owner of payment or penalties.
- Shut-off timeline
- Quarterly bill issued; payment due within 30 days; after 40 days from the billing date the Water Division may discontinue service, but only after written notice at least 10 days before the termination date. The department may also issue a courtesy final notice for delinquency.
- Warning and notice protocol
- The rules say the Water Division intends to send courtesy final notices for abnormally large consumption or delinquency, but failure to send one does not excuse payment. A written notice at least 10 days before termination is required for nonpayment; no text, automated call, or door-hanger sequence is specified.
- Reconnection costs
- A fee is paid to the Water Division for running water off and on after a rule violation or discontinuance, but the current dollar amount and standard-versus-after-hours split are available only from the Water Division office and are not published in the reviewed materials.
