(A) Definition. For the purpose of this section, the following definition shall apply unless the context clearly indicates or requires a different meaning.
UNCLAIMED DEPOSIT. A deposit that is held by the town is presumed to be unclaimed if the property owner or tenant has not communicated in writing with the town concerning the deposit or has not otherwise given any indication of interest in the deposit within two years from the date in which the property owner or tenant is entitled to receive said deposit.
(B) Property owners must make a deposit prior to having water service connected to the property. When we install the meter we will begin charging for water, sewage and stormwater.
(C) A property owner and a tenant must deposit prior to a tenant having water service on the property.
(D) Before a tenant can get water service, an application must be filed at the municipal office. The property owner shall also sign an application wherein the property owner shall assume liability for utility charges incurred by the tenant after the tenant’s deposit is applied.
