For commercial or industrial premises which do not have a meter measuring the amount of water consumed thereon, Council, based on a consideration of similar premises and uses, engineering factors and other relevant matters, may estimate the quarterly amount of water to provide adequate water service and pressure to the premises for the purpose and period for which nonmetered water is consumed, and based on such estimate, the charges set forth in Section 1042.14 shall be levied. If the owner of the premises or other interested party elects to do so, he or she may install at his or her expense water meters satisfactory to the City of Cleveland, Division of Water, to the extent necessary to measure all supplies of water, and the quantity of water consumed on the premises shall be deemed to be the aggregate amount disclosed by these meters.
