A user may request the Department to test the meter. If the meter is accurate, the user requesting the test shall pay the inspection charge. If the meter is defective, the Department shall repair it or shall install a new meter at no charge to the user, unless the Department determines that the meter failed because of damage caused to the meter in violation of § 68-48.
(1993 Code, § 68-51) (Ord. passed 1-22-2001; Ord. 2014-01, passed 1-27-2014)
If a water meter has been tested at the request of a user and has been found to be fast, the Department shall credit the user with a sum equal to the percent fast multiplied by the amount of all bills incurred by the user within the 3 months prior to the test. If a meter so tested is found to be slow, the Department may collect from the user a sum equal to the percent slow multiplied by the amount of all bills incurred by the user for the prior 3 months. When the Department tests a meter on its own initiative, the test shall be done without cost to the user, other than the user's paying the amount due the city for water used but not metered as provided in this section.
