in effect14.04.030 - Establishment by resolution.
Every person whose premises are served by a connection with the system of sewerage of the City whereby the sewage or industrial water wastes or either or both are disposed of by the City through the sewage treatment plant or otherwise shall pay a sewer service charge as set by resolution by the City Council.
The City Council shall set such charge by resolution and may from time to time, in its discretion, revise such charges. In setting such charges the City Council shall take into consideration the amount and type of sewage discharged into the system by a particular type of land usage and may also take into consideration any factor such as added pumping costs which might justify a charge in one area of the City which might vary from charges in other areas of the City. In setting such charge the City Council may make allowances for vacancies in apartment houses served by master electric meters wherein the number of vacant dwelling units cannot readily be ascertained by the City.
