A RESOLUTION OF THE LODI CITY COUNCIL
ESTABLISHING A "LOCAL RULE" FOR
WATER MEASUREMENT LAW
(SENATE BILL 229)
WHEREAS, the City of Lodi has the responsibility to comply with Water Measurement Law, Senate Bill
229 (1992); and,
WHEREAS, Senate Bill 229 does not require water meters to be read or billings to be based on metered
rate; and,
WHEREAS, if meters were installed at this time unnecessary wear would shorten the life of those meters;
and,
WHEREAS, the City of Lodi does not have a residential meter users rate at this time; however, it is
anticipated it is possible the City may establish a rate with the City's next water rate increase; and
WHEREAS, the City of Lodi has been collecting fees for meters since January, 1992, as required by Senate
Bill 229. These funds are placed in a dedicated account specifically for purchase and installation of the required
meters.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the City of Lodi does hereby establish a "Local Rule",
under which the City of Lodi will continue to collect fees on new water services for water meters and installations,
but make the installations in the future at such time as metered billing is implemented.
