(2) If, upon presentation of the bill, the consumer refuses to pay for the water or sewer so illegally used, then it shall be the duty of the Director of Public Works to cut-off or have cut-off the water or sewer, or both, from the premises, and prefer charges against the illegal use of the service, before the Municipal Judge.
(3) The person, upon conviction, shall be punished as provided in this code and shall be liable for the payment of the bill against him or her for the water or sewer so used, by any process or procedure that may be applicable and adequate for the enforcement of the payment of the same; and, further, the water or sewer connection shall be cut-off and discontinued until the bill for the water or sewer is paid in full, with all costs incident thereto.
