(A) The general rule for billing for utility service to any utility user(s), consumer(s), or customer(s) shall be that each separate meter shall give rise to a separate utility bill and a separate minimum charge.
(B) The following shall constitute the only exceptions to this rule.
(1) Where the location is an apartment, trailer court, or other multi-user locale such that one meter serves the entire location although there may be many “customers,” the city shall have the authority but not the obligation to declare any such location as multi-user, and there shall be as many “users/consumers/customers” as there are rental or other units thereat, as determined by the City Council.
(2) The city, on application of any person, may make any other exception, for good cause, as it may deem appropriate.
