- Service charges and fees may be adjusted or waived as necessary at the Parks and Recreation Department Director’s discretion.
Refund of Credit on Account
Credits exceeding $200, and older than one year, will be refunded to households annually. Any credit on account will be refunded to households once per year as of April 30. As part of the process, the Administrative Assistant will generate a report of households with credits that are older than a year. The Administrative Assistant will follow similar procedures to III B as appropriate. These refunds will be issued via check.
