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 by the 10th. A 5% late fee applies if paid or postmarked after close of business on the 17th at 4:30 p.m.; the final day to pay is the 25th.
- Late-fee rules
- A 5% late fee is added to the total bill after the 17th deadline. Returned checks incur a $30 fee; after two returned checks within two years, the City will not accept further checks from that customer. Payment-plan delinquency can also trigger applicable late, nonpayment, and reconnection fees.
- Shut-off timeline
- Bills issue on the 1st and are due on the 10th; the 5% penalty begins after the 17th; the final payment day is the 25th. In default, service may be discontinued without notice. The account can be terminated after written request or 30 days after disconnection, with the deposit applied to the balance and any overage mailed within 30 days.
- Warning and notice protocol
- The application states that default can result in discontinuation without notice and does not publish a separate warning cadence, automated calls/texts, colored paper, or door-hanger process.
