8-1-18: WASTING WATER:
   A.   Except as provided in section 8-1-27 of this chapter, users of water from the municipal water system shall not permit water to continue to run wastefully and without due efforts to conserve water. If, in the judgment of the water supervisor or of any of the officers of the municipality, a user of municipal water engages in practices which result in the needless waste of water and continues so to do after reasonable notice to discontinue wastefulness has been given, the supervisor or any officer may refer the matter to the governing body. (Ord. 17-04, 2-21-2017)
   B.   The governing body may thereupon consider terminating the right of the individual to use culinary water. If it elects to consider the matter of termination, it shall give notice to the water user of the intention to terminate his/her water connection at least five (5) days prior to the meeting of the governing body at which termination of the water service is to be considered. The notice shall inform him of the time and place of the meeting and of the charges which led to the consideration of the termination.
   C.   A water user whose right to utilize municipal water is being reviewed shall have opportunity to appear with or without counsel and present his reasons why his water service should not be discontinued.
   D.   After due hearing, the governing body may arrive at a determination. If the determination is to discontinue the wasteful water user's service connection, it shall notify him/her of the decision and of the period during which the service will remain discontinued. (Ord. 02-01, 10-10-2002)
