NEW BRITAIN, Conn. (AP) The mayor of New Britain says the Connecticut city's recently departed minor league baseball team owes nearly $150,000 in unpaid utility bills.

Mayor Erin Stewart issued a release Wednesday stating that the Rock Cats franchise still hasn't reimbursed the city for the electric, gas, water and sewer bills for its final season at New Britain Stadium.

The team, now known as the Hartford Yard Goats, says an invoice for the bills was received just two days ago.

General Manager Tim Restall says the Yard Goats have every intention of paying the bills. The team says that per their lease, they have 120 days to pay upon receipt of documentation.

Relations between the team and Stewart have been tense since the Rock Cats' move to Hartford was announced in June 2014.
