Disconnection of service may occur without prior notice if emergency circumstances involve imminent danger to persons or property, including a break in a utility service line. Prior notice shall be given by the Village where utility service shall be lost for more than eight hours as the result of routine or scheduled maintenance, so that consumers of utility service may plan accordingly. If the loss of utility service results from a utility line break or other emergency circumstances, and is expected to, or does, last for more than four hours, the Village shall make reasonable attempts to give notice to service addresses affected by such loss of service by asking local media and using public bulletin boards to publicize the loss of service, the reason for it, and the expected date and time by which the Village expects to restore service.
