The owner or landlord shall be liable for utility service to rental property in the interim between renters or tenants. In the interim between renters or tenants, providing the city has been properly notified and service has been terminated, the owner or landlord may pay one-half of the minimum fee which is set by ordinance and pay the normal utility rate for actual usage.
