Each day a violation exists shall constitute a separate violation. Such fines shall be assessed for each day of violation. The Superintendent shall also recover attorney’s fees and all other costs associated with the assessment and collection of any fine or the prosecution of any violation.
(B) A fine of $500.00 shall be assessed to the customer if a water service is turned on (unauthorized turn-on) by other than authorized utility personnel. This fine is payable to the Water Department. Water services, if turned on by unauthorized persons, will be discontinued and the water service will not be turned on by authorized Utility personnel until this fee has been paid.
