All charges not paid within thirty (30) days after the bill is due, or that are not under active appeal, shall be considered delinquent.

All charges delinquent hereunder shall be subject to, 1) an interest charge at the Florida statutory rate, 2) a rebilling charge covering administrative costs in accordance with this Chapter, and 3) shall constitute a lien upon the real property affected, from the date charges are incurred. Charges which remain unpaid for a period of sixty (60) days may be reported to the City Council for assessment against the real property.
