Woodland Municipal Code Ch. 13.28 Water Meters

It is the purpose of this chapter to establish minimum requirements and standards for water meters; and establish objectives, criteria and procedures regulating such activities, consistent with the following policies:

A. To regulate all activities where metering is required to determine the user's water demand and to insure that the cost of service to the user is equitably distributed in the rate structure;

B. To establish and maintain standards that will assure accurate water measurements and efficient service.

(Prior code § 23C-10-1)

A. All domestic water services shall be metered, unless State law allows a water service connection to be unmetered and the Public Works Director determines that permitting an unmetered connection is in the best interest of the City.

B. Sizes and types of meters shall be determined by ranges of flow rates, plus allowable pressure losses, and possible safety requirements (such as fire service regulations).

C. Water meters shall be selected, installed, tested and maintained by the City at the user's expense.

(Prior code § 23C-10-2)
