§ 4.40.010. Fee.

Whenever the city's financial institution of record properly notifies the city that it has been refused payment on a check drawn by an individual/corporation purchasing services from the city, the reason for such refusal having been for nonsufficient funds in the individual's/corporation's account, the director of finance may levy a fee as set by resolution in each instance to help off-set the city's added processing and collection costs.
