§ 53.08 WATER CUSTOMER ACCOUNTS.
   All services will be metered and shall be read and billed monthly as previously stated. Where water meters fail to register or operate correctly, bills shall be arrived at by computing an average bill based on the immediate past two or three billings for the account. Where water consumption is abnormally high due to leakage or broken pipes on the customer’s property, the town shall have the authority to adjust the customer’s bill, taking into consideration the reasons for the leak and the customer’s promptness in having the leak repaired. Upon proof of repair the adjustment will be made by computing an “average bill” for the account, subtracting the average bill from the total consumption, dividing this amount by two and adding this amount back to the average bill.
