SEC. 49-18.3.   GENERAL SERVICE: SEPARATE BILLING.
   (a)   Conditions of separate billing. A general service customer inside the city may receive separate bills for water service and wastewater service if he installs and maintains, at his expense, meters or other liquid measuring devices that are accurate and approved by the director to measure:
      (1)   total wastewater discharged directly into the wastewater system from the premises; or
      (2)   water losses from activities involving evaporation, irrigation or water consumed in products, as illustrated by, but not limited to, cooling towers, boilers, lawn watering systems, or food products.
   (b)   Customer charge. A customer who chooses to be billed under this section must pay an additional customer charge of $60.00 per month for each meter installed pursuant to this section, regardless of the size of the meter.
   (c)   Where meter is inaccurate. When a meter installed pursuant to this subsection is inaccurate, the director may estimate usage or discharge. If a customer fails to repair or replace an inaccurate meter, the director shall bill the customer for the usage charge in Section 49-18.2(c)(3) or (4), whichever is applicable. (Ord. Nos. 19201; 21430; 25385; 26961; 28795; 32003)
