Water and sewer shutoffs authorized as delinquent lists shrink but large balances remain
Summary
The Board of Water Commissioners authorized shutoffs for delinquent water accounts this week and encouraged residents to sign payment plans; delinquent sewer accounts were addressed by the Board of Sewer Commissioners with similar concern.
The Board of Water Commissioners met at 6:29 p.m. and reviewed handouts listing delinquent water accounts. Officials authorized scheduled shutoffs for the coming Tuesday–Thursday and urged residents with outstanding balances to sign payment plans. The packet showed a reduced number of delinquent accounts compared with prior lists, but several large balances remain and the board expressed concern about issuing new bills on July 1.
The Water Board adjourned and the Board of Sewer Commissioners reviewed delinquent sewer accounts, referring to the same materials. No specific account-level details or dollar amounts for the delinquent balances were recorded in the minutes. The minutes note only that shutoffs were scheduled and that customers are encouraged to set up payment schedules to avoid service interruptions.
Board members unanimously approved the procedural motions to enter the water and sewer boards and to authorize the shutoff actions; the meeting minutes do not record dissenting votes or detailed payment-plan terms.
