Normal maintenance and repairs of meters shall be carried on by the City at its expense.

Should a customer wish to have his meter tested, the City will make such test, but should the meter so tested be found accurate within four percent of true delivery, the customer requesting such testing shall pay the cost thereof, provided, however, that should such meter be found to under-register in excess of four percent, the City shall bear the cost thereof.

Customer deposits required for meter testing shall be paid in advance and shall be as shown in the current city charge schedules. The deposit shall be refunded if such meter testing be found to over-register in excess of four percent of true flow.

Whenever a meter has been found to over-register more than four percent, an adjustment in reasonable amount may be made to the customer for past billings, but in no case shall such adjustment exceed a period of four months.

A customer may request of the water department that his meter be reread if be feels that his current billing is in error. (Ord. 4-1982 §16, 1982.)
