A. Denial Of Service: The city reserves the right to refuse to provide service to a customer at any premises until all delinquent bills for prior or current utility services incurred with the city are paid or to any premises which may be found to be in violation of current city codes. The city shall not be required to provide service to a customer who used an alias, trade name, business name, the name of a relative or another person as a device to escape payment of any unpaid obligation for prior service, and a customer's refusal to provide any requested information or providing false information may result in denial or termination of service. (Ord. 96-5-1, 5-3-1996)
B. Application For Service: When any person desires to connect with the city water system, he/she shall make application to the utility clerk's office. The account will be placed in the name of the person who signs the application as the responsible party. The application shall contain at least the true name of the applicant, date of birth, social security and/or student identification number(s), telephone number, employer, next of kin not residing at the same address, and the service address and mailing address (if different), and such other information as the city may deem necessary in order to ensure the effective billing and collection of each account applied for. If the applicant is a corporation, the application must be completed in a person's name "doing business as" the corporation. (Ord. 96-5-1, 5-3-1996; amd. Ord. 12-01-1, 1-12-2012)

2. A single application for service cannot be made to apply to different locations, nor to cover more than one point of delivery at the same location to be used by the same customer, unless the city determines that the physical characteristics of the facility served requires more than one point of delivery according to good engineering and operating practices.
