On Tuesday April 7, the Salida City Council voted to approve resolution 2020-14, which will temporarily suspend late fees, delinquent charges, termination shut-off and the termination of service due to non-payment, as part of its response to the impact to the coronavirus known as COVID-19.
The City will suspend late fees and delinquent charges to provide financial relief for people unable to pay their water and wastewater utility bills. The City’s right to turn off water services for nonpayment will also be suspended allowing Saladians to continue to practice healthy sanitary habits and hand washing.
Operating under the State of Emergency Resolution passed by Salida City Council on March 17, the council will further support the citizens of Salida affected by COVID-19 by giving more flexibility to ensure the Stay at Home guidelines are meant.
Typically, the city receives approximately $2,500 in monthly service charges related to late fees.
