Any applicant for water service whose premises were once connected to and served by water from a water distribution main shall be entitled to have his premises reconnected to the water system without the requirement of paying a connection fee; provided, the application shall have been received within five years of the last disconnection and be an application for the same size meter service as existed on the date of disconnection. In the event the applicant shall request a larger meter size than existed at the time of disconnection (and the application is made within five years of disconnection), then, and in that event, the applicant shall receive a connection fee credit equal to the connection fee applicable to the former existing meter size. Applicants entitled to the provisions and credits of this section shall pay service and meter charges as set forth in Section 15.08.010. (Ord. 770 NCS §1; Ord. 721 NCS §1; Ord. 675 NCS §2; Ord. 589 NCS § 1; Ord. 544 NCS § 11; prior code §27.11 (part).)
