M. All members were present. The Board adopted the following ruling for Commercial and Individual Sewage Rates: No. 1. The first billing was predicated upon an estimated monthly average consumption of combined City and • Private Well usage as estimated by the Engineers. No. 2. The second and subsequent monthly billing will be predicated upon the actual metered consumption of City Water plus an estimated average monthly consumption of Water from Private Wells as deter- mined by the Engineers' survey. Customers are privileged to meter their own Private Water supply, in which event, their metered consumption will be taken together with their metered consump- tion of City Water, to establish a monthly charge. This will apply in all cases, except where special uses of Water require individual ratings. .��e Ate.
