A. 
Unless it is otherwise provided, each consumer will receive a bill for water annually, the same to be due and payable upon presentation. Each of these bills shall include the charge for water consumed, as well as any other charges which the consumer may have incurred. No payments will be received after November 10 of each calendar year.
[Amended 11-3-2010 by L.L. No. 1-2010]
B. 
In any case where the amount of water used is of such quantity that the Water Superintendent shall deem it advisable to issue a more frequent billing, it shall be done notwithstanding the provisions of the foregoing subsections. The decision of the Water Superintendent shall be binding, and the bills shall become due and payable upon presentation.
C. 
The responsibility for payment of all bills rests upon the owner of the premises, and he shall be liable for all charges when due and payable, and such charges shall be a lien upon the premises and fully paid.
D. 
Failure to receive a bill does not entitle any consumer to avoid the penalty as hereinafter provided. The Town Board does not guarantee billing or delivery of bills to any consumer.
Any bill rendered shall be subject to a penalty of 10% of the full amount of said bill, and said penalty shall go into effect 30 days following the date of the bill.
Unpaid bills for water service charges or other charges incurred by the consumer are a lien upon the property. The Town Board may enforce the collection of unpaid bills by cutting off the supply of water after penalties start to accrue on the unpaid bills.
A. 
In cases where it is desired to install connections to a private fire protection system, written application shall be made to the Town Board setting forth the details thereof. The application shall be accompanied by a sketch or diagram, showing the plan of the system to be installed. This plan must be approved by the Town Board previous to any work being done.
B. 
The Town Board reserves the right to impose specific regulations in connection with the supply to private fire protection systems.
C. 
All installations necessary to serve private fire protection systems shall be constructed and maintained at the sole expense of the owner or applicant. Connections for private fire protection purposes shall be properly valved at the expense of the consumer in order to prevent the use of water for any other purposes than those which are contemplated by this article.
A. 
Upon any violation of the rules hereinbefore and hereinafter set forth, the Town Board, by its duly constituted agent, may, upon 24 hours' notice to the owner, agent or occupant of the premises affected, discontinue the supply of water, and such supply shall not be made available until all unpaid charges and rents shall be paid.
B. 
Service of any notice, authorized or directed by, or on behalf of said Town Board, may be made upon the owner, or consumer, personally or by leaving the same at the premises where water is supplied or by sending the same by mail to such party at the last address furnished to the Town Board.
