   Except as otherwise provided in this chapter, the rates the department shall charge for opening and closing a service connection, and for any labor, materials, or service furnished by it, shall be fixed by the council by resolution.
(Ord. 596 § 2 (part), 1966: prior code § 21.04.060)
13.04.070   Meter--City property.
   All service connections and all water meters installed by the department shall at all times remain the property of the city. The expense of maintenance, repair, and renewal of such meters due to the wear of normal service shall be borne by the city. Any expense occasioned by any act, careless or otherwise, on the part of the consumer or any member of his family or any person in his employ shall be charged to and paid by the consumer.
(Ord. 596 § 2 (part), 1966: prior code § 21.04.130)
13.04.080   Meter--Tampering without permit prohibited.
   No person shall tamper with or remove, or cause, permit, or allow to be tampered with or removed, any meter where the same has been attached to any service without first having made application to the meter service clerk of the department and receiving a permit therefor.
(Ord. 596 § 2 (part), 1966: prior code § 21.04.170)
13.04.090   Meter--Failure.
   If a meter fails to register during any period, or is known to register inaccurately, the consumer shall be charged with the estimated average daily consumption as determined by the public works director, taking into account the season, and the consumption shown by the meter when in use and registering accurately.
(Ord. 596 § 2 (part), 1966: prior code § 21.04.030)
13.04.100   Meter--Testing and fee.
   Upon the written request of a consumer, accompanied by a deposit of two dollars, the department shall cause the meter serving the customer's premises to be tested. If it is determined that the meter registers less than three percent over the correct value, the deposit shall be forfeited, no adjustment shall be made in water bills theretofore presented, and the meter need not be repaired or replaced. However, should the meter over-register by three percent or more, the deposit shall be returned and a proportional deduction made in the current bill, and another meter shall be substituted for the existing meter.
