by Art. 16, and 10-26-1987 STM
by Art. 21 (Ch. 149, Art. III, of the 1989 Code)]
Any sewer user charge not paid within the required time period
shall be subject to an interest charge at the same rate as permitted
for late tax payments, until paid. The provision shall not affect
or limit any collection methods or abatement procedure.
The Treasurer/Collector or any other board, department, officer
or official may, to offset the additional costs incurred, add to delinquent
sewer user bills or demands for payment, being sent to any person
or entity who has not paid said bill within the required time period
after said bill was originally issued, an additional billing charge
not to exceed the maximum demand charge allowed under MGL c. 60, § 16,
as the same may be amended from time to time. Nothing contained herein
shall limit any legal recourse available to said Treasurer/Collector,
board, department, officer or official.
