## VILLAGE OF LIPTON - SEWER AND WATER BYLAW NO. 07-2025
## BYLAW OF THE VILLAGE OF LIPTON TO FIX THE RATES TO BE CHARGED FOR THE USE AND CONSUMPTION OF WATER AND TO FIX THE RATES TO BE CHARGED BY WAY OF RENT OR SERVICE CHARGE FOR USE OF SEWER.
The Council of the Village of Lipton, in the Province of Saskatchewan, enacts as follows:
1. The charges to be paid by the water consumer whose water service has been turned on shall be those set out in Schedule "A" attached, or as amended from time to time; provided, however, that the minimum shall be payable in every case whether or not any water is consumed.
2. Persons who own or occupy premises drained or that are by bylaw required to be drained into the sewer shall pay for such services a rental rate or service charge as set out in Schedule "B" attached, or as amended from time to time.
3. Accounts for water service and/or sewer service shall cover a period of one (1) month and shall be rendered on or as close as possible to the first day of the month next following such periods. Accounts shall be paid within a period of thirty days from the date on which such accounts are rendered. If an account is not paid within the said period of thirty days, the water service may be cut off. The water service will not be reconnected without the consumer first having paid all arrears and charges and a fee described in Schedule "A", for turning the service off and on, plus the minimum charge for three months water in advance.
4. Accounts not paid within a period of thirty days from the date on which such accounts are rendered will be subject to a penalty charge of 2% per month.
5. Penalties levied in accordance with Section 4 of this bylaw shall form part of the arrears.
6. Where a customer fails to pay the account for services, any unpaid charges can be added to the tax roll for the premises, in such a manner as permitted pursuant to Section 333 of The Municipalities Act.
7. No person other than Village personnel will be allowed to perform connections and disconnections in the Village. Any other person found guilty of performing these will be subject to a fine of up to $500.00 for the first offence, $1,000.00 for the second offence and so on, to a maximum of $10,000.00 per occurrence thereafter.
