<br />3.7 <br /> <br />Meter Installation for New Construction. All structures shall <br />include the installation of a District approved water meter at a <br />location to be determined by the Board or its duly authorized <br />representative. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />3.7.1 The property owner will purchase the meter from the District at <br />actual cost to the District. This is necessary for the District <br />to maintain quality control of the meters used. <br /> <br />3.7.2 The property owner, at his/her expense, will contract with the <br />District to construct the meter pit and install the meter and <br />all appurtenances thereto. <br /> <br />3.7.3 Following installation, the meter shall be owned by the <br />District and shall become part of the water service facilities <br />of the District. <br /> <br />3.8 Meter Installations for all Commercial Establishments. All <br />commercial establishments, new or existing, retail or wholesale, <br />shall install a District-approved water meter, at their expense, for <br />the purpose of monitoring the volume of water use. The location of <br />the meter shall be determined by the Board or its duly authorized <br />representative. <br /> <br />3.8.1 All meters for commercial establishments shall be read monthly <br />by the Superintendent and those findings reported to the <br />Treasurer/Administrative Clerk for the purpose of billing the <br />users as set forth in Appendix A. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />3.8.2 The Board may, in its discretion, require that all commercial <br />establishments curtail their use of water over and above the <br />allotted amounts for the EQR's held by those commercial <br />establishments during times when the water supply is limited <br />and the Board has determined that continued commercial use in <br />excess of the allotted amounts for commercial establishments <br />creates an unacceptable seasonal demand on the District's <br />facilities. <br /> <br />Water service to any commercial establishment may be revoked by <br />the District upon failure to comply with a request from the <br />Board under this section. In the event of such failure to <br />comply with the Board's request, the commercial establishment <br />shall be given due notice of a hearing to revoke service. Said <br />hearing shall be held by the District at a regular or special <br />meeting of the Board of Directors, at which time the customer <br />shall have the opportunity to present testimony and evidence to <br />the Board. Following said hearing, the Board's decision shall <br />be final and service to the property may be revoked by <br />disconnecting appropriate lines, either public or private, <br />serving the property, or not, as the Board decides. <br /> <br />3.8.3 In the interest of water conservation, the number of taps a <br />commercial establishment may purchase is three, if available. <br /> <br />3.9 Number of Water Taps Upon Sale of Dwelling. A customer who sells his <br />dwelling or property must transfer the number of EQR's which have <br />been purchased by the selling customer or allocated to that dwelling <br />or property, if any. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />3.9.1 The payment of a tap fee entitles a purchaser to use the <br />District's water service only so long as he remains the owner <br />of the dwelling identified on the Application and Permit for <br />Water Tap and/or Service.
