(A) The municipality, through the city’s Sewer Department, shall furnish sewer services to persons within its corporate limits whose premises abut a street or alley in which a commercial main is now or may hereafter be laid. The municipality may also furnish sewer service to persons whose premises are situated outside the corporate limits of the municipality as and when, according to law, the City Council may see fit to do so. The rules, regulations, and sewer rental rates hereinafter named in this title shall be considered a part of every application hereafter made for sewer service and shall be considered a part of the contract between every customer now or hereafter served. Without further formality, the making of the application on the part of any applicant or the use of sewer service by present customers thereof shall constitute a contract between the customer and the municipality to which contract both parties are bound.
(B) If the customer violates any of the provisions of the contract or any reasonable rules and regulations that the City Council may hereafter adopt, the City Council or its agent may cut off or disconnect the sewer service from the building or premises of the violation. No further connection for sewer service to the building or premises shall again be made save or except by order of the City Council.
