NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED. that the Council of the City of Gilroy

establish the peak daily water usage.

water and sewer allocations will be assigned using the following techniques:
a. Research existing development agreements, building permits, and the
like for capacities purchased at the time of original construction.
b. Research water meter books for present usages.
Calculations:
When the city must research water meter books to calculate an existing
usage the following methods will be utilized:
a. Sewer:
1. For an account that has an irrigation water meter or has no
landscaping, the average of the highest four consecutive months
of water usage will be utilized.
2. For an account that has landscaping irrigation but does not have
an irrigation meter, the average winter (November-February) usage
will be utilized.
b. Water:
1. For all accounts the peak water flow in anyone month will be
utilized.

capacity, and is using more than the purchased allocations, said account must pay
for the difference between what was originally purchased and present usage under
the following schedule:

months. If the business or property was out of use during that period, the last
representative year will be reviewed.
