(A) No person shall make any connection to the water system of the village without having first obtained a permit from the community development director.
(B) The supply of water from the village to any and all customers or users is governed by the rates, regulations, and other terms set forth in this code, as from time to time amended, including the right to file liens for nonpayment as set forth in section 7-5-7 of this chapter. A copy of this chapter properly certified by the village clerk and filed in the recorder's office of DuPage County, Illinois, shall be deemed notice that the supply of water by the village is governed by said code.
(C) For new construction, the owner of the premises must execute an application to have water turned on, which application shall contain terms consented to by the owner (hereinafter "application/agreement"). Such application/agreement shall provide that the terms set forth therein shall run with the land and inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, all successors in title of the subject premises. Upon review of said application/agreement, the public works director shall make a determination as to whether a water connection permit shall be issued and, if appropriate, shall issue such a permit.
(D) Whenever the user of the village water services intends to cease using such services, due to moving or other reasons, said user must notify the village of the day he intends to cease using water services. Notification may be made to the village billing department by telephone or in writing, which department shall record such notification in the ordinary course of business. The village will then perform a final reading of the meter and bill the user accordingly. To transfer billing of water services to a new user when no transfer of ownership is anticipated, the new user must notify the billing department. Regardless of any such notification, however, the owner of the premises will remain liable for any water services used prior to his conveyance of the title to the property.
(E) Whenever the owner of the premises serviced by the village water intends to sell or otherwise convey the property, he must notify the billing department of the date scheduled for closing. On that date, the village will conduct a final reading and bill the owner accordingly. The proposed buyer must also notify the village of the date he intends to begin using the village water.
