In all cases of nonpayment of the water rent in 30 days after the same is due, the Water Works Director shall cut off the supply; and the water shall not again be let on except upon the payment of the sum fixed by the Board of Water Commissioners, and not for the same occupant or owner except upon the payment also of the whole amount due; provided, that in case of specific supplies, or for fractional parts of the year when the water has been let on, it may be cut off immediately after notice given at the place that the rent is not paid, and may be let on again upon the conditions before mentioned. The foregoing provisions shall apply when two or more parties take the water through the same service pipes, although one or more may have paid the proportion due from him or her.
