Service pipes must be so arranged that the supply of each separate water user, house or premises may be controlled by a separate stopcock and meter, and before water will be supplied through such service pipe, the owner of the property for which service is rendered must agree to be responsible for and pay for all water used through such service. Where water is now supplied through one service to one or more houses or persons, the city council may, in their discretion, either refuse to furnish water until separate service for each user is provided, or may continue the supply on the condition that one person shall agree to be responsible for and pay for all water used through such service. (Ord. 39, 12-15-1914)
