A. Maintenance and repair of water lines on private property is the
responsibility of the private customer. The customer is also responsible
for any water lost due to leaks or breakage of their lines. The City
of Cassville may elect to adjust the customer's sewer billing when
the customer promptly notifies the City of Cassville's Public Works
Department as to the nature of the leak and the City can verify the
repair has been completed.
B. Elected Methods to Adjust. If the leak is from any
source that allows the flow of water into the sewer line, then no
credit will be allowed for sewer. If the water leak is from any source
that does not allow the flow of water into the sewer line, then the
sewer usage bill will be adjusted to equal three months of average
usage, as determined by the Public Works Department.
C. The City will allow for a customer's water leak credit no more than
one (1) time in any twelve-month period.
D. The City shall deny or discontinue, after reasonable notice to the
occupants thereof, the water service to any premises wherein any leak
is not repaired and verified in a manner acceptable to the City.

has corrected or eliminated such conditions or defects in conformance
to this Article to the satisfaction of the City.
