(A) In addition to all other charges, the owner, lessee or occupant of each premise connected with the sanitary sewer system of the city shall pay a quarterly charge in accordance with the following.
(1) Sanitary sewer service charges shall be based upon the amount of metered water at each premise. If a premise is supplied with water from a private well, the owner shall be required to cause the installation of a water meter with a remote reading device so that the volume of water passing through the meter may be determined without having to enter upon the premises.
(2) Sewer service charges for premises which are connected to the city sanitary sewer system, but, for which a water meter has not been installed in accordance herewith, shall be as set by the City Council.
(3) An adjustment may be made to the charges for sanitary sewer service for commercial/industrial users for processing water which does not enter the sanitary sewer system. The adjustments shall be approved by the City Council. Other adjustments including water for the filling of swimming pools, but not limited to, may be made as deemed appropriate by the City Administrator.
(B) Charges for sanitary sewer service shall be billed to property owners quarterly on or about May 1, August 1, November 1 and February 1 annually. All charges billed shall be due and payable within 30 days following the date of the billing.
(C) Henceforth, the charges and provisions contained in this section may be altered by resolution of the City Council.
