Water rates are chargeable in accordance with
a schedule of types of use and fees imposed and established by resolution
of the Village Board.
Should it be desired by the consumer to discontinue
the use of water, the Village shall be notified, in writing, as to
the desired time and place at which the service is to be discontinued.
The Board shall require the Superintendent of Public Works or his
representative to shut off the service at the curb box. When it is
desired to resume service, similar notification shall be given to
the Village, and, upon payment of all indebtedness, the Superintendent
of Public Works or his representative will turn on or off the water
at the curb box. The charge made for turning on or off the water shall
be as stipulated in the latest adopted fee schedule.
Rebates of rentals for the nonusage of water
will not be allowed unless the Village Clerk-Treasurer is notified,
in writing, at the time and on the date when the water will be shut
off and turned on at the curb box. No rebate is allowed for any period
less than three months.
When bills are desired by large commercial or
industrial users, for other than regular semiannual periods, a bill
based on monthly or quarterly periods will be given after the receipt
of a written request and approval by the Village Board of Trustees.
In addition to the charges and other remedies
provided by this chapter, any person committing an offense against
this chapter shall, upon conviction, be subject to a fine not exceeding
$250 or imprisonment for a term not exceeding 15 days, or to both
such fine and imprisonment. The continuation of an offense against
the provisions of this chapter shall constitute, for each day the
offense is continued, a separate and distinct offense hereunder.
