Any property owner in the district may request in writing, on a form provided by the district, that their water and/or sewer service at their property be temporarily disconnected for the purposes of property improvements, service relocation, or other renovations. Upon receipt of a written request to temporarily disconnect a water and/or sewer service, if the request is granted by the district, the district shall remove the meter and/or inspect the capping of the sewer line in a manner prescribed by the district and place the account on disconnected account status for a period not to exceed 365 days. An account on disconnected status shall be billed the base monthly service rate as adopted by the board of commissioners. The account party, for any account placed on disconnected status, shall pay all delinquent charges prior to the water or sewer service being reestablished. In addition to the monthly service rates, the district shall charge the customer the costs of removing, reinstalling, and inspecting the water and/or sewer service at the rates adopted by the board of commissioners.

The general manager is authorized to terminate any account on disconnected account status for more than 365 days and file a lien against the property to which utility service was previously made available or provided in the manner set forth in RCW 57.08.081 or as amended for any outstanding charges.
