Introduced by Councilor Saucy, November 34, 1980
CITY OF BANGOR
(TITLE.) (tubera-_ Amardl y Sewer DepartmentpOgs....and Regglations_.
By eke Wy Rouiwrt of Ole qtg of Deaver:
ORDERED,
TEAT, Article 13 of the Bangor Sewer Department Rules and Regulations
be deleted in Its entirety.hffective January 1, 1981.
Statement of Fact:
Article 13 is as follows: Abatement for u of water for lawn sprinklers
and garden hoses may be made o application use
the city. Theadjusted
billing determined for the normal sprinkler and hose s shall not be
less than the highest billing during the previous theeeaquartars.
The reason for the eliminationan
of this provision is that under the c-
binedSewer / Water billing system it is not possible to provide an adjust-
ment to Sewer without affecting Water charges. The only way to provide such
an abatement would be by processing individual checks for each account.
The majority of the abatements a mall i size ($t.00 - $3.00) and the
cost of processing and mailing checks is too prohibitive for such small
amounts.
