I I I Council Meeting Minutes September 26, 1989 Page 3 Council Business Margaret Egan, Finance Director, presented the resolution authorizing certification of delinquent utility bills. The City Code provides that delinquent water and sewer bills can be certifi ed for coll ecti on with property taxes. A del i nquency is unpaid charges which are at least ninety days past due and over $100.00 as of September, 1989. The certification process has been completed for two of the three billing areas, and payments are still being collected until the end of September for the thi rd bi 11 i ng area. To meet the County certification deadline, the City Council must take action at the Council meeting tonight. For the two completed billing areas the certified amount is $52,000.00. For the third billing area, the certified amount is estimated at $28,200.00 and will be incorporated into the certification by an addendum. The total certification will be $80,200.00 and represents 3.6% of all utility billings. A portion of the total certification is late charges which accumulate at a rate of 10% on the unpaid balance. For the comp 1 eted two bi 11 i ng areas the total of the 1 ate charges is $10,100.00. An estimated $3,700.00 of late charges are included for the incomplete third billing area.
