In this bylaw, including this section; (a) "Municipality" means the Rural Municipality of Hazel Dell No. 335; (b) "Clerk" means the Administrator of the municipality. 3.

The owner of the parcel of land who is supplied with water from the municipal system and who is adjacent to the main lines of the municipal system which are located above, on or under a street, road or easement may be responsible for the costs of construction, maintenance, repair and replacement of the portion of the service connection from the main lines of the system or works to the boundary of the street, road or easement. 6. The municipality shall have the right to limit the amount of water furnished to any customer, should circumstances seem to warrant such action. 7.
