Returned Checks
Checks presented as payment for utility charges shall be presented to the bank only one (1) time for payment. If returned unpaid by the bank for any reason, Tahlequah Public Works shall notify the customer by a customary written notice, unless customer is past due, stating the amount of the insufficient check and the deadline for repayment to avoid suspension of services. If customer is past due and a check is returned insufficient, services will be suspended without notice.
Only cash, cashiers check, or money order will be accepted at the time you pick up the check.
In the event a customer has two (2) returned checks in a twelve (12) month period, Tahlequah Public Works will notify the customer that further personal checks will not be accepted for the next twelve (12) month period.
Any customer paying an account that is on suspension notice with a returned check from any bank shall have utility service suspended immediately without further notice.
There will be a return check fee of $25.00 on any returned check because of insufficient funds, stop payment or any other related reason that causes the check not to clear the bank. At the time of this payment, please notify the office clerk that payment is for a returned check. Failure to receive a notice will not exempt a customer from service suspension.
If a customer writes a check for meter deposits on a past due utility service and the check is returned to T.P.W.A. unpaid, service shall be suspended without further notice.
