- Utility Sign-up Fee: A fee of $10.00 is charged to set up a new utility account. A signed Utility Agreement must be received by Lindon City before services commence.
-
The Billing Period is from the first day of the month until the last day of the month (i.e., July 1st – July 31st). The billing is always a month behind actual usage. For example: July bills will be due August 31st. The customer can opt to either have a hard copy of the bill mailed and/or posted digitally on-line. Bills are posted online (through Xpress Bill Pay) on the 5th of every month and hard copies that are mailed are typically postmarked by the 6th of the month.
- Meter Reads for culinary and/or secondary water meters are completed as close as possible to the 20th & 21st of every month depending on if the dates occur during a regular work day. If these dates are on a weekend, then meter reads will typically begin on the Tuesday of the following week. Example: Water usage is billed from July 23rd - August 20th or 21st.
- A Late Fee of $10.00 is charged monthly to any account not paid in full by the due date.
-
Delinquent Notices (Utility Shut-off Notice), for bills that are two-weeks past due, are typically mailed out 10 days prior to water utility shut off (typically postmarked 10 days prior). A delinquent fee of $5.00 per incident is charged to any account that requires a delinquent notice to be mailed. Example: June's bill is due July 31st. Delinquent notices will be mailed on August 15th. Customers have until August 14th to pay the past due amount to avoid a $5.00 delinquent charge. Delinquent payments are due by 5:00pm the day before the shut off date.
-
Shut-Off Day for non-payment of bills is on the 25th of the month unless that day is a Friday or weekend. If shut-off day falls on a weekend, the City will shut off the water the following Monday. Other than through the prior billing invoices and mailed delinquent notice, the City is not required to notify the customer about shut-off but will typically attempt to notify the customer with a phone call prior to shut-off the water. All past due amounts (delinquent payments) are due by 5:00pm the day before shut off.
- A Reconnect Fee of $50.00 (per incident) is charged to any account that is shut-off for non-payment of past due amounts.
-
To summarize through an example: June’s bill that was NOT paid by the due date of July 31st will receive a $10.00 late fee. Any unpaid bill amount, plus the late fee(s) and delinquent notice fee(s), then turns into the past due amount. This past due amount shows up on the bill letting the customer know they have a past due balance which is due by August 14th to avoid the delinquent notice ($5.00 late fee), which will be added to their account on the 15th. If that past due amount still isn’t paid by August 24th the city will typically attempt to call the customer that day letting them know they need to pay their past due amount that day by 5:00pm to avoid shut off. If not paid by 5:00pm on the 24th the water service is shut off the following day (typically the 25th) and the account is charged a $50.00 reconnect fee. The customer needs to pay the past due amount, plus any assessed late fees and delinquent fees, plus the $50 reconnect fee in order for the water to be turned back on. Through bills, delinquent notice letters, and a phone call, the customer should typically receive three notices of delinquency / un-paid bills before they are disconnected on August 25th for a bill that was due on the 31st of July.
- The customer must notify Lindon City in writing of any errors on a billing statement within 90 days after issuance of the statement on which the error or problem appeared or failed to appear. If no notice of error is received within the 90 day period, the account will be deemed correct, and the customer will have no recourse for errors. Failure to receive a bill does not relieve applicant and /or owner of liability.
