Billing Procedures The
area that Perkasie Borough Authority services for water and/or sewer is divided
into three (3) sections (A, B and C) for billing purposes. Bills are dated the
first of the month, unless the first falls on a Saturday, Sunday or holiday and
are delivered to the Perkasie Post Office the day before. The billing months for
each cycle are as follows: Cycle
A - March, June, September, December Cycle B - January, April, July, October
Cycle C - February, May, August, November Payments are
always due 14 days after the bill date. A 10% penalty for late payments is added
after 12:00 noon on the following day. We are proud of the fact that there is
only about a 2% delinquency rate. On the 16th day of the following month of the
bill date, a "Payment past due" notice is mailed to customers who have not yet
paid their bill in full. Ten (10) days after the past due notice is sent, a "Shut
off" notice is mailed advising the customer of the date which service would be
terminated if our office is not contacted. Seven (7) days after the shut off,
certified letters are taken to the post office, again advising that in eight (8)
days service will be terminated. A $10.00 charge is posted to the account for
the cost of processing the certified letter. Copies of the certified letter are hand delivered
and posted to all doors of the location to be shut off the day before. There is
a $15.00 charge for shutting water off and a $15.00 charge for restoring
service. We
accommodate property owners if they have a tenant and the tenant is responsible
for payment by mailing a duplicate of the bill and also of all of the notices.
This way the property owner is always aware of outstanding and/or delinquent account
balances. This does not relieve the owner of the ultimate responsibility of payment.
