The word "establishment" as used in this subsection or any other section establishing city utility rates and fees shall be construed as follows:
(A) As used with respect to residential establishments, the word "establishment" shall mean a room or group of rooms arranged for the separate living of one or more individuals or a family and equipped for housekeeping, and each single-family residence, apartment, or mobile home shall constitute a residential establishment for the purpose of billing for sewer services. The definition of a residential establishment shall include churches and religious structures.
(B) As used with respect to commercial establishments, except as provided in (D) the word "establishment" shall mean each room or group of rooms receiving water and sewer services and used for a separate commercial, professional, educational governmental or other undertaking except residential or industrial. Where a separate commercial undertaking is not the recipient of separate water and sewer services as, for example, where more than one office type operation is served by a common restroom or men's and women's restrooms, each such restroom or set of restrooms, as the case may be, shall constitute a commercial establishment for the purposes of billing for sewer services.
(C) As used with respect to industrial establishment, the word "establishment" shall mean a separate facility used for the purpose of manufacturing or processing goods.
(D) Special commercial establishments shall mean and include hotels, motels, hospitals, nursing homes and educational buildings, whether publicly or privately owned and whether operated for profit or not for profit.
