Upon observation by the Utilities Superintendent or upon filing of a complaint by any citizen in the municipality, any customer of the Water Department using excessive amounts of water without first obtaining a permit shall be issued a notice to appear before the governing body to show cause why he or she should not be required to apply for a heavy user permit and pay additional water fees. If said customer does not appear before the governing body or does not satisfactorily show that his or her water use is not excessive, he or she shall be billed an additional fee set by the governing body and, if the customer fails to pay said additional fee, he or she shall have his or her water service disconnected.
