[Amended 10-21-2002 by L.L. No. 18-2002]
The Village reserves the right to discontinue
water service to any untested meter or to a meter which does not meet
the Village minimum standard flow requirements as set forth in the
Village Meter Department. In lieu of the discontinuance of water service,
the owner may elect to continue service by agreeing, in writing, to
pay a monthly surcharge of 50% on the average water consumption for
a thirty-day period in the 12 months preceding the required test date.
The monthly surcharge shall continue until the owner furnishes satisfactory
proof that the meter has been repaired and tested, or replaced.
