If any fee, charge, or license so levied, other than a municipal garbage collection fee, becomes delinquent, the delinquency may be certified to the county treasurer and shall be collected by the county treasurer in the following year as a condition precedent to payment of the real property tax on the lot or parcel of land with respect to which the fee, charge, or license was levied. The chief fiscal officer of a municipality shall collect a delinquent municipal garbage collection fee as a condition precedent to the payment of any water, sewer, utility, or other charge collected by the municipality.
