(A) When a renter gives notice to the utility office for a final reading upon leaving the premises, utility service will be discontinued as requested, and the renter will be billed for services through the date specified. Service to a rental property will not be terminated if the owner of the premises has previously made a written request with the village that terminations not occur when a tenant leaves. Pursuant to that request and village policy, the owner continues to be responsible for all utilities provided to the premises, including trash and garbage pickup.
(B) If the landlord allows a renter to occupy premises without an application for utility services made by the renter, the landlord shall be responsible for all charges and fees associated with the supply of utilities by the village. If an application is not timely made and accepted, then service is subject to termination as provided in § 50.16(E) and the owner shall be subject to § 50.20.
