consideration, including all taxes collected, received by the

by the licensee. The licensee shall maintain adequate books and
records in accordance with generally accepted accounting
standards which shall clearly indicate gross revenue from the sale
of alcoholic liquor separately from the gross revenue for the sale of
salon services. The licensee shall make such books and records
available for inspection by the local liquor control commission or
its designee. Such inspection may be conducted during normal
business hours on the licensed premises or at such other location as
the city is directed by the local liquor control commission.

discontinue, after reasonable notice to the occupant thereof, the water
service of any property wherein any connection in violation of the
provisions of this section is known to exist, and to take such other
precautionary measures as he may deem necessary to eliminate any danger
of contamination of the public water supply distribution mains. Water
service to such property shall not be restored until such conditions have
been eliminated or corrected in compliance with the provisions of this
section and until a reconnection fee of two hundred fifty dollars ($250.00)
is paid to the city. Immediate disconnection with verbal notice may be
effected when the water operations director is assured that imminent
danger of harmful contamination of the public water supply system exists.
Such action shall be followed by written notification of the cause of
disconnection.
H. The customer is deemed responsible and must bear the cost of cleanup of
the potable water supply system if contamination of the potable water
supply system occurs through any means under the control of the customer
including, but not limited to, an illegal cross connection or an improperly
installed, maintained or repaired device, or a device which has been
bypassed.

A. All services now in use or hereafter installed shall be provided with water
meters of a size and type approved by the water director. No water shall be
turned on at any service location until a water meter is installed except as
herein provided. All city water used on any premises wheresoever situated
in the city, except as hereinafter provided, must pass through a water
meter. Except as provided below no bypass or connection around the
water meter from the water main or service shall be made, allowed or
maintained.
MARCH 21, 2012 VOLUME LXXVII
178
B. All meters shall be furnished by the city and shall remain the property of

service location shall be provided and paid for by the customer but shall
not be considered a metered location or be read or billed by the city. All
meters herein required for air conditioning and air cooling systems shall
be paid for by the customer and shall be subject to regulations of the water
director regarding installation, inspection and maintenance to the same
extent and in the same manner as meters furnished by the city.

by the city. Meters in excess of one inch (1") in diameter shall be installed
by the customer as directed by the water director. Every meter shall be set
and calibrated by or at the direction of the water director.
D. Every service location shall be individually metered and shall be provided
with water through a separate service pipe to which a shut off box has
been installed. The shut off box shall be located in the city's right of way
as closely as possible to the city's right of way line. Not more than one
meter shall be installed on any single service pipe for which the city
generates a water and sewer bill. Service locations with multiple tenants,
lessees, condominiums or other similar multioccupant arrangements may
install a single meter to service the multiple occupants at the service
location provided there is one person, partnership or corporate entity
lawfully designated as being solely responsible for the payment of water
and sewer billing generated by the city. In the event any such service
location, whether being used for residential or commercial use, is sold or
otherwise divided in any manner that legally requires more than one
owner or occupant to make payment on the water and sewer billing
generated by the city, each independently owned or occupied portion of
the service location shall provide a separate water service pipe, shut off
box and meter before receiving water service, or an association of owners
or occupants shall be formed that is legally responsible for the payment of
a single water and sewer bill.
E. All meters for residential service locations shall be required to have an
automatic meter reading (AMR) unit as directed by the water director. All
other meters shall be required to have an AMR unit as site installation
conditions permit to be determined by the water director. All automatic
meter reading units shall be of a type of unit that collects meter readings
electronically
F. Meters shall be placed and located within the building served as directed
by the water director to enhance accessibility and protection of the meter.
Meters shall be located at the point of entry within 3 feet of an exterior
wall, unless otherwise accepted by the water director. The area where the
VOLUME LXXVII MARCH 21, 2012
179
meter is installed should have walk-in accessibility and working
headroom. Water meters used for external irrigation systems shall be
installed above grade with backflow preventers and shall be installed,
subject to the water director's approval, within a hot box designed to
protect the meter and backflow preventer from the elements and
unauthorized tampering. No water meter shall be permitted in a crawl
space or manhole/meter pit.
G. In the event that after installation, the meter becomes inaccessible for any
reason, including, but not limited to, flooding or freezing of a meter pit,
the water director may direct the customer, at the customer's expense, to
take those actions which, in the water director's opinion, are necessary to
render the meter readily accessible.
H. There shall be installed, on the inlet side of the meter, ball valves of an
approved design. There shall also be installed on the outlet side of the
meter a ball valve of like design. The meter shall be set in a place so that
the meter and the ball valves are easily accessible for removal and for
reading, and set in such a manner as to prevent freezing or submersion in
water. All meters shall have a working clearance on top of not less than
sixteen inches (16") and on all other sides of not less than twelve inches
(12").
I. A bypass shall be installed for all meters of three inches (3") or larger and
in businesses where water service cannot be interrupted during normal
business hours. The bypass shall meet standards and requirements as
determined by the water director and shall include tamper proof lockable
ball valves. All bypass lines shall have similar cross connection control
devices as specified under section 14.04.065 as the main water line. The
water director shall be notified prior to the unlocking of any such locked
bypass valve. Failure to so notify the water director prior to the unlocking
of any such locked bypass valve shall constitute unauthorized use of
water."
Section 5. That Section 14.04.075 of the Elgin Municipal Code, 1976, as amended,
entitled "Meter Conversion" be and is hereby further amended to read as follows:
"14.04.075: METER CONVERSION:

after the issuance of the subsequent water bill which includes a past due
amount, such customer shall be given written notice pursuant to Section

through a meter except as is hereinafter provided. In the event that meter
registration amounts to more than six (6) times the average monthly usage

the customer occurring prior to customer's knowledge of the defect, the
Water Director and Finance Director, in the exercise of reasonable
discretion, may abate or refund an amount equal to seventy five percent
(75%) of the excess over an amount equal to six (6) times the amount of
the average monthly bill; provided, however, that no rebate or refund shall
