The city may refuse an applicant for service under the following conditions:

A. If the applicant fails to comply with the provisions of this chapter,

B. If the intended use of the service is in the opinion of the manager of such a nature that it will be detrimental or injurious to service furnished to existing consumers;

C. If in the judgment of the manager an applicant’s installation for utilizing the service is unsafe or hazardous or of such a nature that satisfactory service cannot be rendered;

D. If service has therefore been discontinued for fraudulent use, service will not be rendered until the manager has determined that all conditions of fraudulent use or practice have been corrected.

When an applicant is refused service under the provisions of this section, the manager shall inform him of the reason for the refusal to serve him and of his right of appeal to the council under this article. (Ord. 544 NCS §9; prior code §27.13.)
