(A) All requests for turning off water must be made by the named applicant on a service account or his or her authorized agent. When the water is ordered turned off from any premises, a final meter reading will be obtained and all charges for services supplied to the premises shall be calculated and due on the date specified on the bill. The customer requesting discontinuance of service must also furnish the Water and Wastewater Division with a change of address.
(B) Until the notice and payments shall have been made, the premises shall be deemed occupied by the customer and his or her liability continued.
(C) In the event that the customer shall have made a deposit to the Water and Wastewater Division, and the deposit is still being retained by the Division, the deposit amount will be applied to the balance owing on the account. All credits in excess of five dollars will be refunded, unless the customer requests the lesser amount.
(D) When the former customer has been notified of the amount of billing remaining due after deduction of customer's deposit, any accounts remaining due may be assigned for collection purposes.
