(La Porte, IN) - Utility bills are coming due in La Porte next week.  The city's utility billing office suspended shut-offs and late penalties back in March due to coronavirus, but as people are getting back to work, the city will be expecting payments soon.

Delinquency notices went out yesterday, and shut-offs for non-payment will resume Friday, August 21 unless arrangements are made.  Officials at City Hall urge residents who have fallen behind with payments to contact the utility billing office to set up a payment plan.

City Hall remains closed to the public, but residents can get help with a payment plan over the phone or online.
