1-15-3: PURPOSE:
The payment for supply of municipal services is vitally important to the city's ability to continue to provide such municipal services. Accordingly, the city desires to set forth its authority for service discontinuance and collection of past-due amounts in the event of nonpayment. Additionally, the City Council finds there is a connection between Water and Electrical Service and wastewater service, storm water service, and garbage service in the promotion and protection of public health. Accordingly, the City Council finds the operation, regulation, and discontinuance of Electrical and Water Service in relation to the nonpayment of wastewater service, storm water service, garbage service, and street light service as a means to promote and protect public health.
