Any user who has been disconnected by the town from electric service provided by the town, or who is given notice of an impending disconnect thereof, may request a hearing before Power Board. The hearing shall be for the purpose of obtaining a reversal of the town’s action, or for the stay of a threatened action, in the event a user believes there to exist an unfairness or illegality in the town’s position in the matter. Request for the hearing shall be made within five days after the occurrence of an action of the town to which the user objects, or within five days after receipt of written notice threatening the action if a hearing is desired before action is taken. The request shall be in writing, and the town shall afford a hearing within five days after the receipt of the request, during which time no further action or disconnect shall be undertaken if the action has not already been taken prior to the receipt of written request for a hearing.
