A. Rates for water services shall be charged to each customer as provided by ordinance adopted by the Custer City common council. The customer shall be required to remit the minimum monthly fee for the periods of time that the structure is not occupied.
B. Customers who are seasonal in nature, less than year-round service, shall be required to remit the minimum monthly fee for the periods of time that service is discontinued, and shall remit the regular fee for actual consumption for the periods of time that service is in use.
C. The city council shall establish water and sewer rates that will generate the amount of money needed to pay for the proportional amount of the total water and wastewater budget that reflects the percentage of water and effluent (sewer) used by the collective commercial community and the collective residential community.
D. Abandonment of Service. Abandonment of service requires the system to be shutoff in conjunction with Section 13.04.270 (notice for discontinuance required) with the written statement (form) being filed on the property with the Custer County register of deeds office. When this procedure is completed, the minimum monthly utility charge will be waived. At the time the property owner decides to have the utility lines reactivated, there will be the normal and customary charges as associated with Section 13.04.080 (issuance of permits).
