In that case, the City may collect such charges in any other manner it deems fit. Failure to pay such charges when due shall cause a penalty to be levied in an amount at the same rate as is applicable for the late payment of unpaid County general taxes. If the City elects to collect such charges on the annual general County tax bill, the amounts of the standby sewer charges and any applicable penalties shall be stated on the tax bills separately from all other taxes, if practicable.
