All premises connected to a public water system shall be equipped with a public water meter furnished by the township, so located that all water entering the premises shall pass through such meter and be measured as to volume consumed for periodic computation of water charges. An owner may add a second water meter for an additional charge for lawn sprinkling or irrigation purposes if desired so as to not be charged sewer charges for such usage. Meters shall remain the property of the township and all repairs and replacements are to be completed by the township. Any person found tampering with the meter shall be subject to penalty for ordinance violation under § 51.999.
