Should it become necessary to shut off water from any section of the Borough because of accidents or the making of changes or repairs, the Department will endeavor to give timely notice to the consumers affected thereby and will use its best efforts to prevent inconvenience and damage arising from any such cause, but failure to give such notice will not render the Department responsible or liable for damages that may result therefrom or from any other cause.
The Superintendent may at his discretion shut off the water from the premises of any owner or tenant guilty of violating any of the provisions of this chapter; but he shall give said owner or tenant at least 24 hours' notice before water is shut off. Whenever notice is required to be given, the notice shall be given by enclosing a copy thereof in an envelope with postage prepaid addressed to the person, firm or corporation to be notified, at the post office or residence of such person, firm or corporation as the same appears on the books of the Department, and mailing same at post office in the Borough; and such notice so given shall be conclusively deemed to have been given at the time of such mailing.

No occupancy permit shall be issued for any new construction within the Borough of Rocky Hill having a human water supply system until such time as said new construction has been connected to a public water supply main for the purposes of supplying water for human consumption or use if the construction is located on a street or road along the line of the water supply system owned or operated by the Borough of Rocky Hill and said water supply system is available to serve said construction.
