(A) In case of failure of any user to pay for services rendered, the city may compel payment and may enjoin further use until the payment is made, or it may institute an action in any court having jurisdiction for the recovery of charges for services rendered, or the city may, by a notice in writing, signed by the Mayor, notify the municipality or the person, firm, or corporation which furnishes water to the user's premises, to shut off the water service to said user's premises, until such time as all delinquent charges, plus a reasonable charge for turning off and on the water service, against said user, are paid in full. However, such disconnection shall not be made until the requirements of § 51.059 are made.
(B) Upon receipt of such notice in writing, the municipality, or the person, firm or corporation which furnishes water to the user's premises, shall immediately shut off and discontinue the water service to the said user's premises.
(C) Upon full payment of such account, plus a $20 charge for turning off and an additional $20 charge for turning on the water service, the Mayor or his designee shall notify the municipality, person, firm or corporation, which furnishes water to said user, that the account is paid in full, including such reasonable charge for turning off and on the water service, and that the said water service can again be provided to said user's premises.
