Bench meter test fee.
San Antonio City Code § 34-133
in effectSec. 34-133. - Bench meter test fee.
A customer requesting that the system apply a bench test at the system's meter shop to the meter serving the customer's account shall be assessed a fee of one hundred twenty-three dollars ($123.00) only if the system finds that the meter being tested is accurate:
The fee amount is effective January 1, 2025. The fee amount shall be adjusted on January 1 of each year thereafter by the percentage difference (greater than zero (0)) between the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) as it is calculated by the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics at the end of the month of July prior to the next year and as it was calculated at the end of the month of July one (1) year earlier, and subsequently rounded to the nearest dollar. SAWS will periodically perform a cost of service analysis to ensure that the fees charged do not exceed the cost of providing the services.
