§ 1042.19 DEDUCT METER PROGRAM.
   A deduct meter (also known as irrigation meters) program shall be implemented for those users of the City Water System that wish to irrigate their lawns. The meters must be obtained from the City of Columbiana Water Department and shall remain the property of the City of Columbiana. The cost of these meters, including installation and maintenance, is the sole responsibility of the property owner. The City will not release the meters until all costs have been paid and all inspections are complete. The owner of the property containing a meter, owned by the City, that is connected to an irrigation system is to complete an annual backflow certification at the owner's expense. The backflow device must be a reduced pressure device. The reduced pressure device will require that a drain, of some type, be present prior to installation of the device. The City also reserves the right to stop or pause the use of water for irrigation with a twenty-four hours notice.
