Adopt policy for handling unpaid bills and debts owed to the city

Bad Debt PolicyGovernanceResolution

In Plain English

The city currently lacks a formal policy for managing money that residents and businesses owe but may never pay, such as overdue utility bills or permit fees. This policy would establish standard procedures for writing off bad debts and estimating future losses. If approved, the city gains clearer financial reporting and better budget planning.
