13.20.040 Discontinuance of service.
In the event the charges for service become delinquent as
defined in Section 13.20.030, or in the event the seventy-five-dollar deposit
required of certain users as set forth in Sections 13.20.010 and 13.20.020
becomes delinquent as defined therein, the village treasurer or collector is
authorized and directed to cause notice to be given in writing by mail, or by
hand delivery, to the person listed in the records of the village as the
recipient of bills for service that such delinquency exists and that service
shall be discontinued without further notice if such amounts are not paid within
ten days after the date such notice is mailed. It shall be the duty of the
superintendent of the combined waterworks and sewerage system to secure copies
of all notices of delinquencies each month from the village treasurer or
collector and to disconnect service to such delinquent users at the end of the
ten-day period if the delinquent amounts are not paid, or in the event of the
failure of the delinquent user to comply fully with the terms of any adjustment
made in accordance with Section 13.20.050. Upon the disconnection of any
service, a reconnection charge of fifty dollars shall be imposed. All charges,
including deposits, penalties and reconnection charges, must be paid in full
before service may be restored. (Ord. 2003-3 § 3, 2003: Ord. 1993-6 §
