The following methods shall be used to determine the sewage charges provided by § 51.161 upon premises served by the system.
(A) On premises using water exclusively supplied by the municipal water works and having a water meter acceptable to the village, the quantity of water used, as measured by such meter, shall determine the sewer charge as provided herein.
(B) On premises using water exclusively supplied from other sources than the municipal waste works, where the quantity of water used is not measured by a water meter or is measured by a water meter not acceptable to the village, the owner or other interested party may be required at his or her expense to install and maintain an acceptable water meter. The quantity of water used, as measured by such meter, shall determine the water quantity for the sewage charge as provided herein, or such water quantity may be established by negotiation between such owner or interested party and the village.
(C) On premises using water supplied both by the municipal water works and from other sources not measured by a meter acceptable to the village, such owner or other interested party may be required at his or her expense to install and maintain an acceptable water meter to measure water from such other sources. The quantity of water used as measured by such meter, plus such measured quantity as supplied by the municipal water works, shall determine the water quantity for the sewage charge as herein provided, or such water quantity may be established by negotiation between such owner or interested party and the village.
(D) In the event it can be shown to the satisfaction of the village, with respect to any premises, that a portion of the water from any source used thereon does not and cannot enter the system, then the owner or other interested party may at his or her expense install and maintain separate water meters where necessary to show only that portion of water used which is discharged into the system. That quantity of water used as measured by such meter showing discharge into the system shall determine the sewage charge thereon at the rates provided herein. If the quantity of water being discharged into the system is established by negotiation, such negotiated quantity at the rate provided herein shall determine the sewage charge thereon. Swimming pools and similar uses shall be negotiated and the volume of water used may be established by the volume of the container and the volume of the water which does not enter into the sewage system.
