§ 4.04.080. Construction water service.

1.

Persons desiring water for construction purposes shall request a temporary water meter for connection to a District fire hydrant, and shall be subject to the fees and deposits as set forth in Exhibit "A" of this Ordinance. Any construction meter issued to a customer shall become the sole responsibility of said customer. It will be the responsibility of the customers to identify the approximate location or fire hydrant where the meter connection shall be made and shall notify District personnel of any changes to said location. The customer shall be responsible for any damage and repair to the meter while in their possession. In the event that a meter is lost or stolen, any deposit placed with the District by the customer for the meter shall be forfeited. If a replacement meter is requested, a new deposit and application shall be required for the replacement meter.

All construction meters will be installed by District staff and secured to the desired fire hydrant with a District locking device and lock. These meters will remain at this location until such time the responsible person requests it to be removed. The responsible person can request the meter to be relocated at a maximum number of four times per billing period. Requests for removal or re-location will be accomplished the same day provided the request is made prior to 1:00 p.m. Any request made after 1:00 p.m. may be completed the following day. All damages and loss attributed to theft or vandalism shall be the responsibility of the customer.
