3.24.010 Check handling fee established.

Whenever a check or draft presented to the city is dishonored by nonacceptance or nonpayment by the drawing bank or institution, the maker will be charged a check handling (NSF) fee of $30.00. Any license or application paid for with such check or draft is invalid, any obligation paid with such check or draft is still outstanding, and any penalties, interest or fees specified in the city of Colville’s ordinances or resolutions will continue to accrue, until the city receives funds for the amount of the check or draft plus the check handling (NSF) fee. Funds must be paid in the form of cash, money order, or cashier’s check.

The city treasurer of the city of Colville or his/her designee is hereby authorized and directed to assess said check handling (NSF) fee in addition to, and as a part of, the payment or obligation due or made to the city of Colville for which the dishonored check or draft was issued. (Ord. 1396 NS § 1, 2008).
