A.    During months when meters are read and recorded on a monthly basis, water users shall be responsible to pay all fees associated with all culinary water metered.

    B.    When a leak occurs on the user's service line during the winter months when meters are not read, partial credit will be given for the culinary water metered yet not used due to the leak. Credit will be calculated as follows:

    1.    By using the minimum billing per month times the number of months the meter was not read; and

    2.    By crediting the user's account for the cost of fifty (50) percent of the total gallons metered over the minimum monthly usage as established by the City Council. (Added during 1993 recodification)
