Where the water supply to the customer has been discontinued for non-payment of delinquent bills, or where a meter is to be reinstalled for a new customer at the location where one existed previously, a charge of $50 shall be made for reconnection in addition to all delinquent bills and other charges, if any, owed by the customer to the city. In instances where the customer pays after 3:00 p.m. and would like service connected the same day, a charge of $75 shall apply. Any customer who cannot be available at their address during the time the city arrives to reconnect service, and happens to leave a plumbing fixture open or there is a large leak, the city reserves the right not to activate service at that time to avoid damage to the customer's property or incurring a large water bill. Should the city choose to turn on the service in this situation the city shall not be held responsible for any damage to the customer's property as a result of turning on the service. Additional service calls back to a customer's address may result in an additional turn-on fee.
