From the meeting
The council introduced an ordinance to add collection costs and fees to delinquent utility bills. It would pass attorney fees, filing fees, debt collection costs, and related charges through to the delinquent account holder. The ordinance was framed as an emergency to recover city collection costs and reduce pressure on utility rates.
Any collections vendor, credit reporting, or billing support work would flow from this policy change.

Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
