In the event the active water account is for the sole purpose of providing fire flow, lawn, landscaping or other irrigation and sprinkling or other use approved by the City Engineer not requiring a sewer connection, the following service rates shall not apply.

B. Should a customer pay applicable wastewater service rates in accordance with [subsection] 50-12.A., but the customer is not physically connected to City wastewater service, the customer may request a credit of paid-to-date wastewater fees be applied to any system development fees due, to establish an active City wastewater service connection. The customer account must be active and in good standing for the credit to be calculated and applied, and only those fees paid by the current customer will be available as a credit.
C. In the event there is a privately owned City approved sewer meter installed for commercial and industrial users, the wastewater metered volumes will be charged at the rates listed below. The installation costs of the sewer meter shall be borne by the customer and the meter placement shall allow access for reading by the City and satisfy City standards.
The meter shall be calibrated annually City-required standards with a testing certification provided to the City. At any time should the meter begin to malfunction causing inaccurate reads, the sewer account owner shall correct the issue and provide a new testing certification to the City. Should the issue not be resolved within sixty (60) days, the customer's sewer charges will revert back to the water metered rates listed in [subsection] 50-12.A. until the meter is repaired. If metered quantity amounts are not available, the City may use estimated volumes to determine billing amounts.
