Bills are due on the Due Date that is printed on your bill each month. A penalty of either $10 or $20 dollars depending on the services you receive is added to past due accounts on the next business date after the Due Date printed on your bill. Service is discontinued on the Cut-Off date printed on your bill of each month for all unpaid accounts and a $50.00 restoration fee is added.
