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 fifteenth day after the bill date; if that day is a weekend or holiday, payment is due the next workday.
- Late-fee rules
- Rates are net, and the gross amount for delinquent payment is 10% higher. The City can require all utility charges, connection/reconnection charges, and initial or reinstated deposits before service is connected or reconnected.
- Shut-off timeline
- The bill is due 15 days after issuance, or the next workday when the due date is a holiday or weekend. If full payment is not received by the due date, all utility services are delinquent and subject to disconnection; the current page does not publish a separate fixed number of warning days before physical termination.
- Warning and notice protocol
- The City identifies delinquency by the due date and may disconnect all utility services for nonpayment. The reviewed page does not specify exact warning media, notice count, automated call sequence, text notices, or door hangers; those details are not publicly documented.
- Reconnection costs
- Connection and reconnection charges, plus any required deposit, must be paid before service is connected or reconnected. The current public page does not expose the numerical standard or after-hours water-restoration fee.
