§ 53.35 REMOVAL OF WATER SERVICE FIXTURES PROHIBITED; EXCEPTIONS.
   (A)   When water is introduced into any property or premises by YCWSD, the water service fixtures become a permanent improvement in the same manner as paving, curbing, sidewalks, sewer connections, and the like. The water service fixtures belong to the property for which they are placed and will not be transferred from the property to which they have been assigned, but are under the control of YCWSD.
   (B)   YCWSD may, in the discretion of the director, replace existing meters, service connections or other fixtures with meters, service connections or other fixtures of equal, or greater, capacity or efficiency.
   (C)   Should the use of water through service connections be discontinued, or a “partial service connection” remain unused, YCWSD, in the discretion of the director, may remove the meter, service connection and other water service fixtures, or discontinue the availability of the “partial service connection.”
   (D)   When water is introduced into any property or premises by YCWSD, meter and service connection shall not be removed or transferred, except by special permission of the director.
