[Adopted 11-22-1957 by Ord. No. 317 (Ch. 70, Art. III, Part 3, of the 1971 Code)]
If the owner or occupant of any premises shall
neglect or fail to pay, for a period of 60 days from the date thereof,
any sewer rental or charge for sewer, sewage or sewage treatment service
imposed by the Borough, the Columbia Water Company, Columbia, Pennsylvania,
is hereby authorized and requested at the request and direction of
the Borough of Columbia to shut off the supply of water to such premises
until all such overdue rental rates and charges, together with any
penalties and interest thereof, shall be paid.
The Borough of Columbia will formally request
the discontinuance of such water service in writing, signed by the
Chairman of the Sewer Committee and/or the Sewer Manager, and on such
request will agree to save harmless the said Columbia Water Company
from any claims by reason of such discontinuance. The Borough of Columbia
also agrees to pay to the Columbia Water Company their standard fee
for each shutoff, and an additional standard fee when service is restored.
This charge will be collected with overdue rental rates.
This article need not be enforced in exceptional
or hardship eases, but shall be determined by the Chairman of the
Sewer Committee and/or the Sewer Manager.
