A. Prohibited: It shall be unlawful for any water user to waste water, or to allow it to be wasted, by imperfect stops, taps, valves, leaky joints or pipes, or to allow tanks or troughs to leak or overflow, or to wastefully run water from hydrants, faucets or stops, or to use the water for purposes other than for those which he has paid, or to use the water in violation of the rules and regulations adopted by the city for controlling the water supply.
B. Limitations May Be Permitted: The city council may at any time fix by resolution the time of day of water to be used for lawn sprinkling or other irrigation purposes, and may divide the city into districts for that purpose as in the judgment of the city council may be necessary. In time of scarcity of water, the city council may in its sole discretion, limit the use of water for other domestic purposes.
C. Termination For Violation: If, in the judgment of the water superintendent, a user of municipal water engages in practices which result in the needless waste of water, and continues so to do after reasonable notice to discontinue such wastefulness has been given, the superintendent shall refer the matter to the city council for appropriate action, which may include termination of water service to such user or his premises.
