This allowed the utility to spend time quality assuring the system prior to the commencement of collections activities. For FY 2011, utility bills delinquent by 30 days or more averaged $16.2 million per month. The total number of disconnects in fiscal year 2011 was down from previous years due to a suspension of disconnects resulting from hotter than normal temperatures. |
