All applications for the use of water must be
made in writing on forms provided by the Town. On acceptance by the
Town, the application shall constitute a contract between the Town
and the applicant obligating the applicant to pay the Town its established
rates and charges and to comply with its rules and regulations.
Applications will be accepted subject to there
being an existing main in a street or right-of-way abutting on the
premises to be served, but acceptance shall in no way obligate the
Town to extend its mains to service the premises excepting as hereinafter
provided.
A separate application must be made for each
premises. Submetering will not be permitted.
Application for temporary water service will
be accepted and temporary water service will be supplied, provided
that it does not interfere with use of water for general purposes.
The quantity of water taken for such purposes shall be determined
either by meter or by estimate and shall be paid for in accordance
with the rate schedule applicable to metered general purposes. Customers
requiring temporary water service shall reimburse the Town for all
its expense in connection with providing the necessary temporary service
connections.
No agreement will be entered into by the Town
with any applicant for service until all charges due from the applicant
for water or services at any premises now or heretofore owned or occupied
by him which are in arrears shall have been paid.
Whenever a person, municipal corporation or
special improvement district shall make application to the New York
State Water Resources Commission for its approval to take a water
supply or an additional water supply from the Town or from a municipal
corporation or special improvement district which is then supplied
by the Town, the applicant shall file with the Town, on or before
making such application to the State Water Resources Commission, a
true copy of its petition, maps, plans, engineering reports, exhibits
and other papers filed with said Commission in support of its application.
Whenever the owner or operator of a mobile home
court applies for the service of water to said court, there shall
be furnished to the Town a map or plan thereof showing its location,
the estimated number of trailers and other structures to be served
and the arrangement of roads, driveways and lanes affording access
to and within the limits of said mobile home court.
