A. Village Residents: The water rates for the Village are hereby established to provide a twenty dollar ($20.00) minimum charge for the first two thousand (2,000) gallons of water used and $0.004 for each additional gallon used. These rates shall be determined by the water meters installed. (Ord. 2017-04-03, 4-3-2017, eff. 4-27-2017)
B. Agricultural Use: Services for water furnished to special meters on property within the Village which are used only for the purpose of maintaining livestock owned and maintained by residents of the Village and maintained within the Village, and for water furnished at special meters installed within the Village for such purposes to be used for agricultural purposes of a commercial nature of the user, shall be charged at water rates only, and no sewage charge shall be made. Provided however that none of such water shall in any way be discharged into the public sewer or drain system of the Village.
C. Nonresidents Of Village: Nothing herein shall prohibit the practice of providing water service to nonresidents of the Village to areas contiguous to the Village. Such charges shall be at the contractual price and conditions agreed upon between the Village and the consumer. (1993 Code p. 21 Ord. W403-9-1, 10-5-1987)
D. Water Leaks: In the event of a water leak, the customer will be billed an average of the past six (6) months' water bills, not including the billing in question, plus a ten dollar ($10.00) charge. This will only be done after it has been determined by the Village Superintendent that an actual leak does exist. On future billings, after this initial adjusted billing, if the leak is not repaired by the water customer, the full amount due the Village will be chargeable. It is further stipulated that this policy will not be effective unless the water customer reports to the Village Superintendent the possibility of the leak, and the Superintendent confirms the existence of such leak.
