(a)

All accounts for water and services shall be due and payable as follows. All cycle 1 accounts shall be due and payable on or before the 15 day of each calendar month. All cycle 2 accounts shall be due and payable on or before the 30th day of each calendar month. (In regard to the month of February, the due date shall be the second day of March.)

(b)

All accounts with balances over 15 days past due will be notified by mail or door hanger of their past due balance ten days prior to their scheduled termination date. Unless paid in full before the scheduled termination date, water service will be cut off without further notice to the delinquent customer. Any delinquent customer who shall request an administrative hearing in writing before the cut off date shall be entitled to a hearing before the city manager as a condition precedent to the cessation of service. Such request shall be delivered to the office of the city secretary. After a hearing, the city manager shall correct any errors proved in the customer's billing, and shall suspend or continue water service under such terms and conditions as he finds to be equitable.
