A.Â
Any
person who tenders a check or other written instrument to the municipality
or any department or administrative board or subdivision thereof for
the payment of an account or service which is returned for insufficient
funds shall be assessed a service charge of $20 for each such check
or instrument returned.
B.Â
Whenever
the account for which a check is returned is for a tax or special
assessment, the service charge shall be included on whichever list
of delinquent accounts is prepared for enforcement of such lien.
Any service charge authorized by this chapter shall be collected
in the same manner prescribed by law for the collection of the account
for which the check or other written instrument was tendered.
Once a check or other written instrument is returned for insufficient
funds, the appropriate municipal department head or officer may demand
that future payments on such account be tendered in cash or by cashier's
or certified check.
