Each building must have at least one individual meter that does not take water from another metered line or building. Master metering of more than one building in a complex is an option when approved by the city. If the premises to be served are multiple and one meter is to serve more than one tenant, it will be necessary for the owner of the premises or their authorized agent to apply for the meter. Each water meter will have its own meter control valve. If the master is used a minimum fee of $10 will be attached to the bill for each unit in the dwelling. Example: if you have a four-plex with a master meter then there will be three minimums attached to the water bill. All usage will be billed off the master meter.
