Any consumer wishing to discontinue water service
shall give notice thereof at the office of the Water-Sewer Utility.
The charges will continue until such notice is given. On receipt of
said notice, the Utility will turn off the service at the curb stop
and record the date thereof, whereupon the charge to the consumer
will cease, but in no case will an abatement of an advance-billed
flat-rate charge be taken into consideration for a shorter period
than one month nor for part of a month.
A.
Disconnection of service line. Any consumer wishing to disconnect the service line from a water main at the curb stop for the purposes of the demolition of structures receiving water service shall first make application to the Department of Licenses and Inspections for a demolition permit in accordance with Chapter 635, § 635-2, of the Code of the City of Vineland. Only City of Vineland personnel or their assigns may disconnect any service line from a City of Vineland water main. The cost for such disconnection shall be $960, paid at the time of application for a demolition permit.

[Amended 12-11-1973 by Ord. No. 916; 8-26-1986 by Ord. No. 86-46; 2-23-1993 by Ord. No.
93-9; 8-26-2003 by Ord. No. 2003-43; 11-23-2004 by Ord. No. 2004-64; 11-7-2005 by Ord. No.

In the case of a temporary vacancy by the owner
or occupant of any premises, the Water-Sewer Utility will turn off
the water upon written request of the owner or an authorized agent
for a charge of $25. Upon written request of the owner or an authorized
agent, the water will be turned on again for a charge of $25. Water
turned off at the owner's request shall not impair the contract then
existing between the City and the owner.
[Amended 7-26-1988 by Ord. No. 88-62]
Where water has been turned off by written request from the property owner in accordance with the description in § 687-97, it is recorded in the Water-Sewer Utility books, and the charges cease from that date, but where water recorded as turned off is at any time found on, it is expressly agreed by the consumer that the Utility may charge for the use of water from the time it is recorded as being turned off in addition to any arrears chargeable against the premises.
[Amended 7-26-1988 by Ord. No. 88-62; 2-23-1993 by Ord. No. 93-9]
Where disconnection or reconnection of service
is requested for the convenience of the property owner beyond the
normal working hours of 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday,
the same will be done at the expense of the property owner on a time-and-materials
basis. There will be no charge for an emergency disconnection or reconnection
during nonbusiness hours, unless the account was originally disconnected
for nonpayment. (See § 687-159.)
