Upon approval of the application by the water utility and payment of the fee and upon installation of meters, the water utility will maintain the connection on the water main in a right-of-way or easement and will maintain the service line from this connection up to and including a stop cock at the point of delivery. The utility may also maintain a water meter at the point of delivery or at a location provided by the customer and satisfactory to the water utility on or within the customer’s premises. When the water meter is installed on private property, the customer will be responsible for installing the appurtenances required for meter installation.

When the city agrees to supply materials for installation, these appurtenances will be delivered by the water utility to the facility or site after payment as set forth in Chapter 3.104 LMC and after the developer pays the cost of such appurtenances. The meter location must be unobstructed and readily accessible, as determined by the water utility.
