Sec. 7-5-410. Service termination.
(a) If the Town Manager believes that termination of service will result in the prompt payment of delinquent charges and the resumption of service, the Town may proceed to terminate service as set out in this Section. The Town shall, by mail or personally, give notice of termination of services to both the owner and occupant of the premises. The notice shall state:
(1) The amount due, plus an additional twenty dollars ($20.00) for collection costs;
(2) The date of termination, which shall be fifteen (15) days from the issuance of the notice of termination; and
(3) That a twenty-five dollar ($25.00) fee will be added for terminating service, and another twenty-five-dollar ($25.00) fee added for recommencing service.
(b) If, by the date set for termination, the Town has not received the complete payment of amounts due, the Town may then terminate collection service and add the fees and surcharge contained in Paragraph (a)(3) above to the outstanding bill. Recoverable resources and refuse collection service charges shall continue to accrue during such discontinuation of service for delinquency.
(c) The Town shall promptly reinstate collection service upon the complete payment of the delinquent bill, fees, twenty dollars ($20.00) for collection costs and accrued interest. (Prior code 7.16.120; Ord. 1288 §1, 2008; Ord. 1351, 2011)
