Failure to receive mail will not be recognized as a valid excuse for failure to pay rates when due. Change in ownership of property and change in mailing addresses must be filed in writing at the office of the superintendent.

Prior to the adoption of 6497 on 03/24/2010, Section 13.56.450 read as follows.

A. In all cases where water is furnished for purposes other than manufactories, motors, laundries and elevators on the same service, separate meters must be provided and the water consumed charged for at schedule rates, and such consumers must pay for all service connections as provided in this chapter.

B. All water service connections shall be metered and charged for at meter rates; provided, that service for a building used exclusively as a residence or dwelling house within the corporate limits of the city of Aberdeen may be furnished water at a fixed rate without metering.

C. Meters of more than one-inch diameter will be allowed only by special arrangement between the superintendent and the applicant for service.

D. In computing meter rates and water rents, results ending in one and two cents will be counted as "0"; results ending in three, four, six or seven cents will be counted "5"; results ending in eight and nine will be counted "10."

E. Failure to receive mail will not be recognized as a valid excuse for failure to pay rates when due. Change in ownership of property and change in mailing addresses must be filed in writing at the office of the superintendent. The superintendent may require payment in advance or satisfactory security for all water to be furnished by meter, and if such payment be not made, or security furnished within the time fixed by the superintendent, water shall be shut off from the premises.
