§ 13.12.190. Delinquent utility payment charge.
A.
There is established a charge of one and one-half percent per month for delinquent payment for water, gas, sewer and garbage utilities and services, calculated on the unpaid delinquent amounts for such utilities and services.
B.
The delinquent charge shall be assessed against all accounts upon which payment is not received in the utility offices of the City of Willcox prior to the close of business hours on the twentieth day of each month. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, if the twentieth day of the month falls on a business holiday recognized by the city, payments received before the close of business hours on the next following business day shall be deemed to have been timely received, and such payments shall be credited before assessing any penalty.
