RESOLUTION RECOGNIZING WATER CONSUMPTION FOR BURST PIPES
WHEREAS, the United City of Yorkville owns and operates a municipal water utility; and
WHEREAS, there are occasional water pipe bursts which result in significant water loss
from the City water system; and
WHEREAS, on occasion the loss occurs on the "customer" side of the meter; and
WHEREAS, these losses can occur through no negative actions by the water customer; and
WHEREAS, recognizing this water as being "consumed" would result in an overly
burdensome utility bill; and
WHEREAS, it is appropriate to classify this water as "loss" as it is not truly "consumed" by
the customer.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, by the Mayor and City Council of the United
City of Yorkville, Kendall County, Illinois, that the City Council authorizes the adjustment of
water consumed to estimated water consumed based on normal consumption patterns in cases
where a water loss occurs on the "customer" side of the meter and such loss comes as a result of
a burst pipe outside the control of the consumer provided that the consumer exercised
appropriate efforts to prevent further water loss.
Passed by the City Council of the United City of Yorkville, Kendall County, Illinois this
