SUBJECT:
Certification of Delinquent Water and Sewer Accounts
Chanhassen city ordinances provide two methods for collection of delinquent water
and sewer accounts. The ordinance states, "In the event any water service is not paid
within three (3) months after the time it is rendered, the city council may recover said
amount in an action brought in any court of competent jurisdiction, or in the
alternative, may certify the amount due together with penalties to the county auditor
to be collected with other real estate taxes levied against the premises served."
The procedure for collecting the water and sewer bills is that a bill is generated once a
quarter for each account. If not paid, we then send a letter in the fall (August through
October, depending on which district the account is in) notifying the property owner
of the delinquency and the consequences of non-payment. They are allowed to have
a public hearing to dispute the certification. The list is then sent to the county by
December 1. The list of delinquent properties is available in the Finance Department.
There were no accounts who notified us wishing to dispute these delinquent charges
as of October 2, 2009.
Current practice is to certify the amount due to the property taxes. The city does not
go to court on these small amounts. There are 314 accounts with a total value of
$150,349.20 to be collected this year. This compares to 283 accounts with a total
dollar amount of $126,104.42 last year. We believe that at least several accounts will
be paid in full by the time that the final list is established in December. The other
accounts will be certified to the county for collection with a fee of 10% added for the
administrative costs incurred plus an additional $4.00 Carver County Certification
Fee (for properties within Carver County). Approval of this item requires a simple
majority vote of those city council members present.
