<br />count, that is, a population count will be due on each
<br />•population
<br />January 15th, April 15th, July 15th, and October 15th of each year.
<br />The City Sewage charge billing clerk will use the national institutional

<br />population count furnished by the University of Notre Dame to arrive at
