Users of the sewage works located outside the corporate boundaries of the town will pay 50% higher rates and charges than those users located within the corporate boundaries of the town.
(E) The flat monthly sewer rate shall be charged to any residential or non-residential customer who is not a metered water user or does not have an approved meter attached to their service which would provide readings of either water consumption or sewage flows. Customers who are charged the flat monthly rate may install, at customer's expense, an approved meter for purposes of recording water consumption and/or sewage flow. Non-residential customers who are being charged the flat rate may, at the Town Council's discretion, be required to install an approved meter. Upon installation of an approved meter, a customer's monthly sewage bill shall be calculated according to the above metered schedule of rates and charges.
