(A) The quantity of water discharged into the sanitary sewer system and obtained from sources other than the utility that serves the town shall be determined by the Town Council in such a manner as the Town Council shall reasonably elect, and the sewage service shall be billed at the appropriate rates; further, as is provided by ordinance, the Town Council may make proper allowances after determining the sewage billed for quantities of water shown on the records to be consumed but which are also shown, to the satisfaction of the town, that such quantities do not enter the sanitary sewage system.
(B) In the event that two or more residential lots, parcels of real estate or buildings discharging sanitary sewage water or other liquids into the town’s sanitary sewage system, either directly or indirectly, are users of water and the quantity of water is measured by a single water meter, then in each such case, for billing purposes, the quantity of water used shall be averaged for each user, and the base charge and the flow rates and charges shall apply to each of the number of residential lots, parcels of real estate or buildings served through the single water meter.
(C) In the event that two or more dwelling units such as mobile homes, apartments or housekeeping rooms discharging sanitary sewage, water or other liquids into the town’s sanitary sewage system, either directly or indirectly, are users of water and the quantity of water is measured by a single water meter, then in such case, billing shall be for a single service in the manner set out elsewhere herein, except that the minimum bill shall be not less than the number of such dwelling units times the applicable minimum bill per month based on meter size. In the case of mobile home courts, the number of dwelling units shall be computed and interpreted as the total number of mobile home spaces available for rent plus any other dwelling units serviced through the meter. A DWELLING UNIT shall be interpreted as a room or rooms, or any other space or spaces, in which cooking facilities are provided.
