§ 50.20 SECOND WATER METER FOR IRRIGATION.
   (A)   Owners may request from the city installation of a second meter to meter non-sanitary sewer water usage pursuant to regulations established by the city; however, a second meter will not be issued for an existing irrigation system until a second meter permit is issued.
   (B)   The second meter shall be for metering water usage that is used for non-essential services; i.e., watering the lawn or washing the car. Both meters shall be installed by a professional plumber and are subject to all costs, conditions, and inspections.
      (1)   In the event of a critical water deficiency, refer to the city's Critical Water Deficiency Plan defined in Chapter 53.
      (2)   Homeowners are responsible for all costs associated with sprinkler head maintenance repair and relocation. The city will not pay or reimburse costs related to damaged sprinkler heads located in a right-of-way or easement.
   (C)   The city shall read both meters for billing purposes. Until the inspection of the second meter is complete, the rates will include sewer.
