§ 44-190. Sewer users served by water utility water meters.  


Latest version.
  • (a)

    For each lot, parcel of land, building or premises having a connection with the wastewater system and being served with water solely by the water utility, the quantity of wastewater for billing purposes shall be measured by the water utility water meter used upon the premises.

    (b)

    If a user feels that a significant amount of water metered does not reach the sanitary sewer that user can, at his own expense, through the approving authority, install a second water meter or service that would monitor the flow of water used for lawn and garden watering, noncontract cooling water or other similar purposes. Charges for sewer use would be made based on the difference between the two meter readings if only a second meter is installed, and on actual water metered for sewer use if a second meter and service are installed.

    (c)

    Requests for usage adjustments, or a second meter or service, must be made in writing to the approving authority.
