(A) All applications for service, written or oral, must state the uses to which the water is to be applied. A separate application is required for each meter. Also, a separate application is required for each service line for private fire protection service. Upon the commencement of service by the city, the customer becomes obligated to abide by all the terms and provisions of the city code of ordinances and any lawful amendments, or modifications hereinafter adopted.
(B) When a change of occupancy occurs in any premises receiving water service, an application by the new occupant must be made to the city. Each person accepting water service from the city without making proper application therefore shall be deemed to be a customer for the purpose of all applicable laws of the city. However the city may terminate such person's service until proper application is made.
(C) Where no notice has been given to the city of a change of occupancy of a premises, the current occupant shall be liable to the city for the payment of water service from the billing date next preceding the date of change of occupancy.
(D) No agreement will be made by the city with any applicant for residential water service until all arrearages and charges due from the applicant for water service rendered by the city to the applicant at any other residential premises shall have been paid.
