(A) Each customer shall be entitled to purchase from the city, pursuant to any agreements as may from time to time be provided and required by the city, any water as the customer may desire, subject, however, to the provisions of any applicable ordinance and any rules and regulations that may be prescribed by the city; provided, however, that should a customer sell or dispose of a portion of his or her property or subdivide the same, he or she or the new owner of each new tract may not demand water and taps without paying connection fees for each tract to be served.
(B) In the event that the total water supply shall be insufficient to meet all the needs of the customers or in the event there is a shortage of water, the city or its manager may prorate the water available among the various customers on the basis as is deemed equitable by the city or its manager, and may also prescribe a schedule of hours covering use of water and require adherence thereto or prohibit the use of water for specified purposes for the appropriate period of time as may be necessary under the circumstances.
