On Oct. 10, the Urbanna Town Council voted to adopt a “policy” to aid the town in collecting water bills that are more than 60 days old.
A town ordinance could follow, but it must mesh with state law.
Collecting delinquent accounts from renters can be difficult if the renter moves. Council discussed at an earlier meeting the possibility of billing the landowner if a renter’s bill is more than 60 days old.
