§ 28-236. Separate bill for each meter; collective reading of several meters.  


Latest version.
  • The quantity of water used, consumed or wasted as measured by every water service meter shall be separately billed, and the quantities of water used, consumed or wasted as indicated by separate service meter shall be separately billed. The quantities of water used, consumed or wasted as indicated by a separate service meter shall not be combined for the purpose of applying rates applicable to the aggregate amount. However, when more than one service meter is used to supply one or more premises that are continuously adjacent to each other and owned or leased by the same person, whether or not separated by a public street, and in which water is supplied by the owner to the occupants without making a direct charge therefor or for the owner's sole use, the readings of the several service meters may be combined for the purpose of applying rates applicable thereto.
