The city through its Electric Department shall furnish electricity to persons within its corporate limits. The city may furnish electricity to persons whose premises are situated outside the corporate limits of the city as and when, according to law, the governing body may see fit to do so. The rules, regulations, and electrical rates hereinafter named in this chapter shall be considered a part of every application hereafter made for electric service and shall be considered a part of the contract between every consumer now or hereafter served. Without further formality, the making of application on the part of any applicant or the use or consumption of electric service by present consumers thereof and the furnishing of electric service to said consumer shall constitute a contract between the consumer and the city to which said contract both parties are bound. If the consumer shall violate any of the provisions of said contract or any reasonable rules and regulations that the governing body may hereafter adopt, the Electric Commissioner or his or her agent may cut off or disconnect the electric service from the building or premises or place of such violation. No further connection for electric service to said building, premises, or place shall again be made save or except by order of said Electric Commissioner or his or her agent.
