(A) Before a permit for the use of water shall be issued where meters cannot be conveniently used, the person applying for such permission shall deposit $100 as a payment on account of water to be used by him or her. On or before 30 days from the date of the permit, the person to whom such permit is issued shall file with the Public Works Department a statement in writing, verified by his or her affidavit, showing fully the purpose for which the water was used by him or her for that time, and the amount and location of all work done by him or her during that time in connection with which any water was used, or required. The Village Manager shall ascertain from such statement and any other information the amount due for water so used. If the amount so found to be due, with all other fees and costs chargeable against such person, is less than the sum deposited, the surplus shall be paid back to the depositor. If the amount due for water so used is more than the sum deposited, then the excess shall be paid at once to the Finance Department by such person. If such person desires to continue to use the water after he or she shall have filed his or her statement, he or she shall again deposit $100 with the Finance Department and shall continue to make deposits thereafter, and in the same manner as is provided herein with respect to the first deposit, and the method of determining the amount of water used and the charge for the same shall be the same as the provisions respecting the first deposit as hereinbefore provided.
(B) Where water is furnished to a consumer through a temporary meter hook-up, there shall be added to the cost of the actual water used a charge to be determined from time to time by the Village Manager such that the village shall recover the cost of the installation and removal of the temporary water meter.
