Each user of the sanitary sewage system of the city whose property or premises may be located outside the corporate limits of said city shall pay as a sewer service charge a sum equal to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the sum computed under the provisions of subsection A of this section. The city does not obligate itself to furnish sanitary sewer service to any persons whomsoever, but will furnish such service as is reasonable within its financial ability to do. (2010 Code § 19-29.1)
