§ 2.36.020. Schedule of fees and charges.

Fees and charges made and collected in accordance with and under the authority of this title shall be set and scheduled by ordinance or resolution.

In addition to an action at law or any other remedy, the city may collect fees by using a collection agency. In order for the city to recover the full amount on an unpaid account, the city may charge a fee that is based on the charge the city pays to a collection agency, which charge and will be added to a delinquent account that is submitted to a collection agency for collection services due to non-payment:

Collection Agency Fee: Up to fifty percent of the unpaid amount

This charge will be added to the unpaid fee submitted to a collection agency by the city to collect on the account, such that if an unpaid amount equals one hundred dollars and the collection agency fee is thirty dollars (or thirty percent of the unpaid amount), the total amount due the city will be increased to one hundred thirty dollars.
