When premises are unoccupied, the customer shall notify the
utility in writing and the water shall be turned off and all charges
for water will cease from the date that the water is turned off by
the utility. When the property is again occupied, the customer shall
again notify the utility, in writing, and the water will be turned
on. No allowance or refund will be made for unoccupied property when
written notice both at time of vacancy and at time of occupancy has
not been given as above provided. No refund will be allowed for property
unoccupied for a period of time less than one month.
Service may be discontinued by the utility after due notice
to customer for any one of the following reasons:
A. Use of water by a customer, or with his consent, for any purpose
or at any location or property other than those or that described
in the application.
B. Failure of a customer to maintain and repair his portion of the service
line.
C. Undue waste of water by a customer or with his consent.
D. Failure of a customer to pay a bill for water service within the
period herein specified or failure to pay any other fee or charge
herein provided.
E. Violation by a customer, or with his consent, of any of these rules
and regulations.
If the utility has reason to suspect that any customer has tampered
with the curb cock after the water has been turned off from the premises,
the utility may shut off the water at the main, and it shall not be
again turned on until satisfactory assurance is given that the practice
will be discontinued and all bills, including labor, supplies and
permits, incurred in shutting off and turning on the water are paid
in full.
A charge of $83, payable in advance, will be made for turning on water in restoration of service after discontinuance for any of the reasons specified in §
295-58.
