§ 53.110  SEWER USE MEASUREMENT; WATER METERS; PRIVATE WATER SOURCES.
   (A)   Sewer users served by water utility water meters. There is hereby levied and assessed upon each lot, parcel of land, building or premises having a connection with the wastewater collection system and being served with water solely by the water utility, a sewer service charge based, in part, on the quantity of water used, as measured by the water utility water meter used upon the premises.
   (B)   Sewer users served by private wells. If any person discharging wastewater into the public sanitary sewers procures any part or all of his or her water from sources other than the water utility, all or part of which is discharged into the sanitary sewers, the property shall have water meters installed by the city at the property owner’s expense for the purpose of determining the volume of water obtained from these sources. Where sewer meters are already installed, new water meters will not be required. The water meters shall be furnished by the city and installed under its supervision, all costs being at the expense of the person requiring the meter. The city will charge for each meter a rental charge set by the city to compensate for the cost of furnishing and servicing the meter. The rental charge shall be billed at the time the sewer service charge is billed.
