incurred in the establishment of such service, shall be charged and shall pay to the
Director a service establishment charge as set forth in Appendix A to this Code for
gas service. Such charge shall be made and shall be paid each time such owner, occupant

waived by the Director under guidelines promulgated by the Director as authorized
in Section 28-26. If the customer requests same-day service to connect or reconnect gas service at
a location, the customer shall pay to the Director a fee as set forth in Appendix
A to this Code in addition to any other charges assessed pursuant to this section
or otherwise by this chapter.
