in effectSec. 11-6. - Notice required when water temporarily shut off; exception for emergencies.
In cases where it becomes necessary to close the valves on the water mains for the purpose of making repairs, connections, extensions, etc., so that customers will be temporarily deprived of water service, the person doing such work shall previously notify all of the customers affected whenever it is practicable so to do, but that in cases of emergency, or where the territory affected is too large to render the notification practicable, such valves may be closed for the purpose stated for such time as may be reasonably needed, without giving such notice.
