In order that domestic and residential users of sewage services shall not be penalized for the sprinkling of lawns during the months of May, June, July, and August, the billing for sewage service for residences and/or domestic users for said months of May, June, July, and August, shall be based upon the water usage for the previous months of January, February and March. In the event the water usage for said previous months of January, February and March is greater than the water usage for said months of May, June, July, and August, then the billing for sewage service shall be computed on the actual water used in the month for which the sewage service bill is being rendered. Domestic and/or residential sewage service, as applicable to this sprinkling rate, shall apply to each lot, parcel of real estate or building which is occupied and used as a residence. Said sprinkling rate shall not apply to any premises which are partially or wholly used for industrial or commercial purposes. In the event a portion of such premises shall be used for commercial or industrial purposes, the owner shall have privilege of separating the water service so that the residential portion of the premises is served through a separate meter, and in such case, the water usage as registered by the water meter serving such portion of the premises used for residential purposes would qualify under the sprinkling rate.
