The officers of the BPU, agents and employees have the right to free
access, at all reasonable hours, to the structure where Village water is being
used to inspect the adequacy of the system installation and condition; to
make tests of the pressure and quality of the water supply; to read, service,
install and remove water meters; to inspect for illegal connections and cross-connections;
and to enforce the provisions of this chapter.
Each fee and user charge levied pursuant to this chapter is hereby made
a lien on the structure and, if the same is not paid within 30 days after
it shall be due and payable, it shall be certified to the Treasurer of the
Village, who if still unpaid shall place the same on the real property tax
bill for that year with interest and penalties allowed by law, and shall be
collected as other Village taxes are collected.
