CITY OF LOYALTON RESOLUTION PASSED - "They should be paying their bill."

9/21/2022

The City of Loyalton's overdue water bill total had increased to $53,510.71. There was discussion over potentially adding past due water and sewer bills to property tax since only property owners are billed. It’s now done with Downieville Public Utility District and Sierra Brooks and would need priors by August to add to property tax bills. One $15,343.58 account was stated to make payments each month. If in arrears the end of June of July, making payments or not, the customer history could be applied to taxes with it renewed and updated every year. Mayor Sarah Jackson told of prior State requirements and how they still can’t turn water off. The Council passed a similar Resolution of Confirmation of the Downieville Public Utility District, “the delinquent fees become a lien on the real property to be collected by the County at the same time and in the same manner as property taxes and the amount of uncollected water service fees past 60 days due has become significant and the final report delivered to the Sierra County Auditor.” Joy felt it may get somebody’s attention. It was moved by Darlene Riede, seconded by Joy Markum and passed. Their resolution will be on next month’s agenda and “prepare to alert customers.”
