(A) Where a residential connection to a town waterline is made and the property owner continues to have a well or other source of water, it shall be unlawful for the plumbing servicing any building upon the property to be so connected that any water outlet within the building may be served with water from any source other than the town connection, and it shall also be unlawful to have plumbing cross-connected or so installed that water from the town water system or the private water system may in any way become intermingled. The cross-connection may result in removal of the meter supplying the connections, as well as other penalties; civil or criminal, provided by law.
(B) Upon discovery of a cross-connection upon any property being furnished water through the town’s water system, the owner of the property shall be notified that the cross-connection must be discontinued within 30 days and that a failure to remove or correct the cross-connection within 30 days will result in removal of the meter. If the correction is not made within the 30-day period, the meter shall be removed and shall not be reinstalled without payment of the remainder of the capital charges unless it has previously been paid, in which case, a $10 charge will be required.
