(Ordinance 2014-04, sec. 1, adopted 5/12/2014)
(a) 
Upon request for electric service from a prospective customer, the city administrator, or his designee, shall assign the appropriate rate classification for electric service to the applicant requesting service. This assignment may be based upon information provided by the applicant, or other information available at the time the assignment is made.
(b) 
If a customer receiving electric service changes the nature or character of the service requirements, then the city administrator, or his designee, shall, upon review of the information available pertaining to the revised electric service requirement, reassign the customer to the appropriate rate schedule.
(c) 
If a prospective or existing customer is eligible to receive electric service under more than one of the city’s rate schedules, or if the rates charged are unduly burdensome as a result of the customer’s technical qualification for a specific rate schedule, then the city administrator, or his designee, shall assign the most appropriate rate schedule for electric service after consideration of the various service requirements, potential impact on the city’s facilities, the potential relative costs of serving the customer, and other available pertinent information.
(Ordinance 2014-04, sec. 2, adopted 5/12/2014)
The rates for electric service to nonresidential customers are as set forth in the fee schedule in appendix A of this code.
(Ordinance 2014-04, sec. 5, adopted 5/12/2014; Ordinance adopting 2024 Code)
All bills shall be adjusted by the amount of any sales tax or other tax attributable to the sale of electric service to the consumer unless the consumer has previously provided to the city satisfactory proof of exemption.
(Ordinance 2014-04, sec. 7, adopted 5/12/2014)
The rates and charges specified in the fee schedule are net. Each bill for service is due within fifteen (15) days after issuance unless such day falls on a holiday or weekend, in which case payment is due on the next business day. If full payment is not received at the city’s offices or other approved payment location on or before the due date, all of the customer’s utility services will be considered delinquent and subject to disconnection, and the customer shall pay gross rates for all utility services, where such gross rates for delinquent payments are ten percent (10%) higher than the net rates.
