1. Water used for the operation and maintenance of the water system is permitted.
2. Water for firefighting purposes and hydrant testing is permitted.
B. After notification of violation, the city may terminate any service found in violation of this section if, within a reasonable time period, the condition has not been remedied. (Ord. 867, 5-28-2015)
