When does interest accrue on unpaid bills?
Water and Sewer charges are due and payable 30 days from the date of issue. Interest at the rate of 14% per annum begins to accrue from the due date to the date of payment. A Water and Sewer bill is considered “paid” upon receipt by the Treasurer/Collector, not the post mark on the envelope. Late fees of $5.00 for unpaid water and $5.00 for unpaid sewer fees are also added once the “Demand” notice is sent.
