All property owners within the corporate limits of the city, in, on or upon whose premises water is consumed by the owner, tenants or otherwise, must have a water meter, to be furnished by the city, installed in, at and upon the respective premises; and all city water used in, on or upon said premises shall pass through and be measured by said water meter. In the event that any property owner shall refuse to allow such water meter to be installed, it shall be the duty of the water department to forthwith discontinue the water to the premises or property of such owner, or to refuse to deliver water to the property or premises of the owner. All property owners connected to the city water system shall pay a user fee in the amount set by resolution of the city council. (Ord. 410, 7-11-2006)
