A. The owner of each property shall be obligated to pay the stormwater user fee as provided in this chapter; provided, however, that if no water or sewer service is being provided at the property to the owner as a customer of record and such service is being provided to a customer of record other than the owner, it shall be presumed that the owner and such customer of record have agreed that the customer of record shall be obligated to pay such stormwater user fee. If the customer of record other than the owner refuses to pay the stormwater user fee, the owner of each parcel shall be obligated to pay the "stormwater user fee", as defined in section 10-25-3 of this chapter.
B. Nonresidential multi-tenant properties shall be billed according to the placement of utility meters, i.e., if the property contains individual unit meters, then billing for the stormwater user fee shall be billed to individual units based on the unit's pro rata percentage of impervious surface. If the multi-tenant property contains a master meter, then the stormwater user fee for the entire impervious surface area shall be billed to the customer of record for such master meter.
C. Each unit of a multi-tenant residential building shall be billed a minimum charge, the same being the single-family residential fee, to the customer of record for the unit. If an individual unit is not individually billed for any water or sewer service and is master metered, then the customer of record for the master meter shall be billed as other developed property based on the total impervious surface area.
