§ 42-8. Each house or dwelling unit to have separate service.

(a)

On and after May 1, 2006, for residential buildings, no application for water service shall be approved for more than one (1) dwelling unit to be served from one (1) meter. For the purposes of this section, a dwelling unit includes individual condominium units and other units providing complete, independent living facilities for one (1) or more persons including permanent provisions for living, sleeping, cooking, eating and sanitation with exception of apartment units under one (1) roof with multiple dwelling units. The apartment building (units within one (1) building structure) may be served from one (1) meter. Connection of apartment buildings via breezeway or similar type structures shall not be considered as one (1) apartment building. All conversions from apartment units to condominiums (individually owned residential units) subsequent to initial application, will require provision of one (1) meter per dwelling unit.

(b)

Approval from the director is required to provide fewer meters than is stipulated in section (a) if it can be shown that separate meter service for each dwelling unit or building is not practically feasible. Approval of reduction in number of meters shall be at the sole discretion of the director.
