7553.12. - GENERAL PROVISIONS. ENFORCEMENT.

The Water Division shall enforce the provisions of this Urgency Ordinance.

The Water Division shall provide water to its customers in accordance with the provisions of this Urgency Ordinance, and in a manner reasonably calculated to effectuate the intent hereof.

If any customer fails to comply with any provision of this Urgency Ordinance, the Water Division may reduce the amount of water provided to that customer to the level which that customer would be using said water if he were complying with the provisions of this Urgency Ordinance. The provisions of this subsection shall be applied in lieu of, or in addition to, any other penalties provided in this Chapter, in the discretion of the Water Division, and shall be applied without regard to the status or nature of the customer.

Nothing contained in this Urgency Ordinance shall be construed to require the Water Division to curtail the supply of water to any customer when, in the discretion of the Water Division or the Water Appeals Board, such water is required by that customer to maintain an adequate level of public health and safety.

At the written request of the Water Manager, all customers of the Water Division using twenty-five thousand (25,000) billing units per year or more shall submit a water conservation plan to the Water Division on a form and with a content approved by the Water Manager. These users shall thereafter submit quarterly reports to the Water Division on the progress of their conservation plans.
