RULE 28. Owners of property shall be held responsible for water used in their premises, but, if requested, statements will be mailed to another designated person, such as tenants or agents, providing the owner signs a contract on forms furnished by the Utility Billing Office designating such persons and guaranteeing payment. In case the tenants do not pay in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Department, the owner shall not thereby be relieved from the payment of any delinquencies that might occur. All delinquent accounts against property shall furnish just cause for civil suit against the property owner, and any other remedies permitted by State law. It is the responsibility of the prospective property owner to inquire of possible delinquent charges which may be assumed upon ownership. This information will be given upon request of the Village Utility Billing Office.
