Re: Certification of Delinquent Utility Bills
Each spring and fall, the City of Brooklyn Center certifies delinquent utility bills to
Hennepin County for collection as part of the ensuing year's property tax bill.
This process starts with a letter to the customer notifying them that their
account is past due and that the amount will be certified against their property
taxes. This first letter details the process and the legal authority for certification.
Customers are given the opportunity to pay their outstanding bill without
additional penalty prior to this certification.
Some customers respond to this letter and pay their bills. Some do not. Those
that do not receive a second letter indicating that their account will be certified
for collection with property taxes following a public hearing. The date, time and
location for the public hearing are included in this notice. Again, some
customers will pay their account balances after receipt of this letter while some
do not.
Over the past few years the numbers of customers and the dollar amounts in
question have been as follows:

Re: Water Services that have been Shut Off
When water service has been shut off at the curb stop at any property in the City
for reason of:
• non-payment of bill,
• failure to submit a meter reading card, or
• vacant, damaged or foreclosed property,
any utility accounts related to that service, whether they are accounts of the
current owner or any previous owner, must be paid in full before a work order to
turn the water back on may be issued.
