(A) All water furnished by the city shall be measured, normally by passing through a meter. All meters of one inch or less will be furnished by the city and used by the person paying the water bill. All meters shall be placed in the basement, or if the structure does not have a basement on the lowest level, unless special permission to the contrary is given by the PWD. In the case of meters placed in pits, not associated with a living structure, the PWD shall approve the placement of the water meter.
