§ 98-53. Reconnection after shutoff.

Latest version.

When the water has been shut off from any premises upon application of the owner thereof, or for the nonpayment of water charges, or for any other cause, it shall be unlawful for any person again to connect such premises with water except when authorized to do so by the authorized city personnel or the city's contracted parties. When water is so turned on without such authority, the authorized city personnel or the city's contracted parties may then shut off the water at the main or remove the meter at the service connection; and if the water was turned on by the consumer or by his authority, in addition to punishment as provided in Section 1-5, he shall be charged a fee as stated in Appendix C - Fee Schedule, for reinstating the water supply. Additional charges may be made for reinstalling meters 1½ inches and larger.
