A late payment charge of 1% per month will be added to bills not paid within 20 days of issuance. This late payment charge will be applied to the total unpaid balance for utility service, including unpaid late payment charges. The late payment charge is applied to all customers.

Unless payment or satisfactory arrangements for payment are made within the next 10 days, service may be disconnected.
