A. Upon receipt of written notice from the owner that a structure has been permanently abandoned, or notice from the Town or County Health Officer that a structure has been condemned as uninhabitable or unsanitary and dangerous to human life, potable water shall be immediately turned off, the water meter removed, and the service locked in the off position.

B. A water meter may be reinstalled to the same unit of service, and water service may be provided, upon the authorization of the Town or County Health Officer that the structure is habitable, and upon compliance with the conditions for service initiation.

C. Due to extenuating circumstances such as broken or leaking pipes or other causes that in the opinion of the Town constitute good cause, the Town may refuse to resume any unit of service until such time as those circumstances have been satisfactorily addressed to the satisfaction of the Town.
