§ 108.104. Billing and collection of central service charges.

Under rules promulgated by the Director of Finance and Administration, each agency providing central services to other City or independent agencies shall render a monthly statement or bill for all services performed during that month for each City or independent agency. A statement addressed to a City agency shall be sufficient authority for the Accounting Division to transfer the amount billed from the agency receiving the statement to the agency rendering the statement in satisfaction of the statement; provided, that the rules promulgated under this Section shall provide a mechanism whereby items included on a statement can be questioned by the agency charged with them and the statement adjusted in case of incorrect charges. A bill addressed to an independent agency shall be sufficient authority for the independent agency to pay over to the City, for credit to the agency rendering the bill, the amount of the bill; provided, that the rules promulgated under this Section shall provide a mechanism whereby items included on a bill can be questioned by the independent agency charged with them and the bill adjusted in case of incorrect charges. It shall be the duty of each City and independent agency to promptly transfer or pay over the amount charged or billed to it as central services charges, except a charge as to which there is a question as to the amount of the charge or the correctness of the charge to the agency; the questioned charge shall be paid as soon as final adjustment is made, if the adjustment results in any charge still being owed by the City or independent agency.
