H. F. I159 f tdcColl4r? would prohibit public utilities Operated by +
municipalities from asseest.na a late pa charge of more than 1% per Month
on the outstanding and overdue balance of a utility bill. Public utilities would
also be prohibited from using the tax rolls of that municipality t* collect s past
due utility bill.
Don Pons and I have discussed the proposed bill and have comAudead
that, if the bill is enacted, it will seriously leapordise the financial position
of our Public; Utilities Division and would UltimbtelY lead to increased water
and sewer rates. We ask your assistance in defecating MR bi
We opposes the bill in its entirety. However. th p which would
prohibit ens from using-the Inx rolls to collect past due utility bills causes tea
our greatest c;anceni. C ontrary to the opinion of the sponsors of such 100slation,
it is not nec:essartly or evert usually the "poor" whose delinquent utility bills are
certified to taxes. The greater share of our certified delinquencies are caused
by persons who chose to dewny payment of their bills as long as possible, either
because of arV indifferent attitude or a b that it is to their financial benefit
to use than utilities' money as long as possible. It we are denied the Opportunity
to collect these delinquent accounts thrb+agh the tax roll process, I afraid that
many more customers will allow their accounts to remain delinquent. Ultimately,
the utilities Division will be forced to expend funds for strengthening its collec-
tion procedures and possibly contracting with private collection 8 9 00 clOs. 0
