A. Before a permit to demolish or move a building is issued by the City's Division of Building Inspection, proper provisions must be made to Kill all water and sewer connections. Confirmation of such must be provided to the Department. The following procedure must be adhered to:
1. For water services larger than two inches (2") in diameter, the Kill will be performed by the Division of Water Distribution. A demolition permit may be issued by the Division of Building Inspection only after the Kill fee has been established by the Division of Water Distribution and the fee paid.
2. For water services two inches (2") in diameter or less where water main shutdowns are not involved, Customers must receive a water Kill permit from the Central Permit Center, 16th floor, One Government Center.
3. The Division of Water Distribution may elect to perform Kills two inches (2") or less in diameter if circumstances so dictate. In this event, the Owner or contractor shall pay the standard fee to cover the cost of this work. No inspection fee is required if the Division of Water Distribution performs this work.
4. For sewer service Kills, the Kill will be performed pursuant to a City contract for such services entered into by the Department of Inspection.
B. When it is contemplated that Utility Service will again be needed on the property where buildings are being demolished, a reasonable delay in the Kill may be granted; but, in no instance longer than one (1) year. However, Utility Service will not be granted if the service is of obsolete size, condition or material, or in poor condition as determined by the Department. An applicable deposit to cover the cost of the Kill must in all cases be made, regardless of whether or not a delay in Killing the service is granted.
