The village superintendent of water is hereby authorized and directed to discontinue, after reasonable notice to the occupant thereof, water service to any property wherein any connection in violation of the provisions of this chapter is known to exist, and to take such other precautionary measures as he may deem necessary to eliminate any danger of contamination of the public water supply distribution mains. Water service to such property shall not be restored until such conditions have been eliminated or corrected in compliance with the provisions of this chapter and until a twenty five dollar ($25.00) shutoff fee and a twenty five dollar ($25.00) turn back on fee is paid to the village 1 . Immediate disconnection with verbal notice can be effected when the superintendent of water is assured that imminent danger of harmful contamination of the public water supply system exists. Such action shall be followed by written notification of the cause of disconnection. Immediate disconnection without notice to any party can be effected to prevent actual or anticipated contamination or pollution of the public water supply; provided, that in the reasonable opinion of the superintendent of water or the Illinois environmental protection agency, such action is required to prevent actual or potential contamination or pollution of the public water supply. Neither the public water supply, the superintendent of water nor its agents or assigns shall be liable to any customer for any injury, damages or lost revenues which may result from termination of said customer's water supply in accordance with the terms of this chapter, whether or not said termination was with or without notice.
