A. All billings for water service provided by the city shall be sent to the owner of the property served at the property's address, unless the owner shall designate in writing a different address to receive the utility bill for the property, and said owner will be fully responsible for all charges due the city for providing water and all other utility service to the property.

B. Water service will be delivered only upon request of the owner of the property to be served. Upon making any such request, a deposit shall be made by the owner or on the owner’s behalf to the City Clerk. That deposit will be held in the utility deposit fund to secure the payment of water service charges. An additional charge shall be paid to the water/sewer operating fund as a charge for turning on the water service. If water must be shut off, another charge shall be paid to the water/sewer operating fund to turn off the water service. If any water/sewer/utility service charges become delinquent, the City Clerk shall retain such funds as are necessary from the deposit in the utility deposit fund to cover outstanding utility charges. Any funds not owed to the city for utility service charges shall be refunded to the owner when property is sold. [Ord. 2022-02 § 5, June 2022; Ord. 1997-04, June 1997.]
