All solid waste collection and disposal charges and fees, except for excluded waste and temporary C & D debris accounts collected by the franchisee, shall be billed through the accounting and billing process of the utility department, in a manner which will show each customer’s fees and charges separately from the water bill. The charges and fees established and authorized in this section shall be billed to the party in whose name the water service connection is taken where the premises are served with water and shall be billed to the party in control of the premises at other locations, and if this fact cannot be ascertained, the bill shall be directed to the record owner of such premises. The party who is so billed and to whom services are made available shall be indebted to the city for such services and shall be obligated to make payment thereof as provided in this section. The bill will become delinquent by the close of business on the tenth day of the month after billing. For the purpose of this section, the term “party” shall mean person, partnership, corporation, association or any other legal entity. Billing activities may be performed by the franchisee using similar procedures.
