Residential customers are given a sprinkling credit on their wastewater treatment and collection rate for the billing months of June through September. The customer’s wastewater charges will be based on the customer’s average water consumption during the billing months of December, January, and February.
No residential customer will be allowed to install a separate water meter for a sprinkling system.
Commercial customers must purchase a separate water meter for irrigation purposes. The customer is then charged for the water usage on this meter for the months of May through September. No wastewater charges are billed for this meter.
Both residential and commercial underground sprinkling systems shall have a backflow preventer installed in the main service connection to the sprinkling system that is in accordance with the MN Plumbing Code requirement.
