§ 53.10 DEPOSITS FOR WATER SERVICE.
   (A)   An advance deposit shall be required for each service except that if a property owner owns other real property within the city currently supplied with water and sewer service by the city, such deposit may be waived at the discretion of the Director of Finance. The amount of the deposit shall be in an amount as adopted by resolution from time to time following a public hearing by the City Council.
   (B)   Any or all of such advance deposits may be applied toward the nonpayment of water and sewer service accounts after the service has been discontinued. Service shall not be resumed on such accounts until such time as the deposit is replaced to the satisfaction of the Director of Finance and the turn-on fee has been paid. Advance deposits may be returned without crediting of interest to a customer or may be credited to his current billing one year from date of deposit.
