(A) If the Utility Department is unable to obtain access to a premise or dwelling for the purpose of reading a water meter or remote meter, for any reason whatsoever, or if a meter or remote meter fails to register the amount of water passing through it, for any reason, a monthly bill will be issued based upon the last actual meter reading obtained from the premises or dwelling.
(B) The proper adjustment will be made when the meter reading is obtained. In no case will any bill be issued for more than three consecutive months.
(C) If any meter reading is not obtained at the end of any three-month period, the water will be turned off, after notice until the meter reading is obtained and service charge is paid in full.
