§ 51.080 METER REREAD PROCEDURES AND FEES; TESTING OF METER.
   (A)   A water system customer believing a water meter reading to be inaccurate may request a rereading. The person requesting a water meter to be reread will be charged a fee as provided for in § 16.02 of the Fee Schedule as set forth in Appendix 1 of this code. If the municipality is in error in the original reading or if the meter is tested and found to register more than the warranty of the meter manufacturer, the fee shall be refunded to the customer and appropriate adjustment in the water service charges shall be made.
   (B)   Should a customer demand that a meter be tested for accuracy, he or she shall make a deposit equal to the amount the municipality must pay to have the meter tested. If the test shows that the meter is registering within the warranty of the meter manufacturer or registering less water than is actually used, the deposit shall become the property of the municipality; otherwise, the deposit shall be refunded to the user.
   (C)   If the meter has been misread or the meter is found to register more than the warranty of the meter manufacturer, billings will be adjusted to reflect the inaccuracy. Adjustments shall be limited to the previous three billing periods.
