(1) The rates for the sewers are as follows:
(a) First 2,000 gallons per month is $15.37 minimum; and
(b) Above 2,000 gallons per month is $2.52 per 1,000 gallons.
(2) The combined rates for the combined water and sewer rates within the village are as follows:
(a) First 2,000 gallons per month is $27.94 minimum;
(b) Above 2,000 gallons per month is $7.47 per 1,000 gallons; and
(c) The meter fee per month is $5.
(B) In the event users of the sewer system who are not connected to the water system and whose use of water is not in amounts readily ascertainable or where a meter is not warranted, the village is empowered and required to set such rates for sewerage services as it deems desirable. In addition, in the event that a sewer user not connected to the water system is disconnected for non-payment of a bill or for any reason that the village declares, the sewer will be dug up and disconnected and a charge of $100 per hour will be charged for reconnection, plus the cost of labor, material, and machine hire for said reconnection.
(C) The village reserves the right to negotiate separate sewer rates for large commercial and industrial users with amounts of excessive waste. The amount of excessive waste will be samples taken when overloading has been observed.
