| Late
Payments |
|
Payments are
due by the 10th of the month. Failure to pay your account in full
by the due date will cause a 10% penalty to be added to your account. If unpaid by
the 25th of the month, your account is subject to disconnect.
Reconnects are scheduled only after the consumer has paid the bill
in full, made the minimum payment
required and paid the reconnect fee. In addition, the deposit requirement
is subject to adjustment any time a disconnect for non-payment
(including bad checks) occurs. Consumers must pay the amount due
plus the amount of the adjusted deposit.
A payment made with a bad
check will treated the same as a non-payment. A handling fee of $25
will be charged and is payable in by cash or money order on all
returned checks. After two (2) checks have been returned, the
Consumer will be required to make all utility payments by cash,
money order or cashiers check.

| Changes in
Service |
Consumers may
request a change in service location and transfer applicable
deposits to the new account providing the old account is in good
standing.
All changes in service are
subject to changes in deposits.

| Voluntary
Termination of Service |
Consumers who request a disconnection of service must
leave a forwarding address where the final bill can be
sent. The Consumer's deposit will offset the final bill and any
balance owed to the City. In the
event the deposit does not cover the amount owed, the consumer will
be billed for the balance at the Consumer's new address. If the
deposit is more than the amount owed the City will mail a refund check to
the Consumer for the credit balance due.

After 90 days,
delinquent accounts will be turned over to the City Attorney and/or

examined on a case-by-case basis, but in all circumstances,
Consumers must make regular payments toward the balance, show proof
of hardship, and show good faith effort to resolve the account.
Hardship includes a serious injury or illness of the primary or
secondary applicant, death in the immediate family, natural disaster
or bankruptcy. Hardship claims do not guarantee continuation of
