The owner, tenant or licensee of any residential property or commercial property in respect of which there are arrears of any charge or fee payable by the owner, tenant or licensee (as the case may be) to the Town Council must pay the Town Council a penalty of the appropriate amount set out in the Schedule.
A penalty determined in accordance with paragraph (1) is due and payable on the day following the expiry of the month in which the charge or fee is due and payable and will accumulate until payment is made by the owner, tenant or licensee, as the case may be.
Administrative fee
If any owner, tenant or licensee of any residential property or commercial property is in arrears consecutively for a period of 4 months or more (called the arrears period) for the payment of charges or fees to the Town Council, the owner, tenant or licensee (as the case may be) must pay the Town Council, in addition to the penalty imposed under by‑law 3, a one‑time administrative fee of $40 in respect of the amount of charges or fees in arrears during the arrears period (called the outstanding amount).
