The municipality, through its Water Department, shall furnish water to persons within its corporate limits whose premises abut a street, alley or easement in which a commercial main now is or may hereafter be laid. The rules, regulations and water rates hereinafter named in this subchapter and on file in the office of the Municipal Clerk shall be considered a part of every application hereafter made for water service and shall be considered a part of the contract between every consumer now or hereafter served. Without further formality, the making of application on the part of any applicant or the use or consumption of water service by present consumers thereof and the furnishing of water service to said consumer shall constitute a contract between the consumer and the municipality to which said contract both parties are bound. If the consumer shall violate any of the provisions of said contract or any reasonable rules and regulations that the governing body may hereafter adopt, the Utilities Superintendent or his or her agent may cut off or disconnect the water service from the building or premises or place of such violation. No further connection for water service to said building, premises or place shall again be made, save or except by order of said Superintendent or his or her agent.
