(a) Any customer serviced by the City’s Water System has the option of installing a separate, secondary water meter for the flow that does not terminate in the sanitary sewer system. The cost of installation is hereby established at forty dollars ($40.00), plus the current cost of the meter and wireless transmitter. Payment of all such costs shall be the sole responsibility of the customer. Additionally, a service charge of ten dollars ($10.00) will be assessed to the customer each time if they choose to have the water turned off or turned on by the City. Billings to this secondary meter will not reflect sewer or wastewater treatment charges. There will be no minimum monthly charge for the secondary water service. Customers will only be billed for their actual usage.
(b) The secondary water meter shall be located inside the primary structure of the premises in a reasonably accessible location. City personnel shall be permitted access to the meter for the purpose of taking readings, meter replacement or repair. The failure of the customer to permit such access will result in sewer and wastewater charges being billed to the secondary service for the period during which access is denied.
