Draft chapter 91: Water Meters
§ 91.10 Accuracy Test
The 2026 draft's § 91.10; it has no counterpart in the current code.
Comparison with a draft: not adopted. The archive holds no public hearing, ordinance or vote adopting the recodified Code through the October 20, 2026 meeting packet. Until one is adopted, every page here compares the consolidated code with a draft that can still change: the revised draft with the October 6 changes is not in the archive.
A comparison with the August 2026 draft recodification prepared by Iowa Codification for the City. The draft has not been adopted and can still change; the current code (unofficial compilation) governs until a recodified Code is adopted. Matches between sections are made by machine from the texts and are reviewed where uncertain.

2026 draft
§ 91.10 Accuracy Test
The Superintendent shall make a test of the accuracy of any water meter at any time when requested in writing, but not more often than once in six months. Such request shall be accompanied by a refundable deposit of $5.00, guaranteeing payment of costs if found due. If the meter is found to overrun to the extent of two percent or more, the cost of the test shall be paid by the City and a refund shall be made to the customer for overcharges collected since the last known date of accuracy but not for longer than three months, plus the meter test deposit. If the meter is found to be accurate or slow, or less than two percent fast, the customer deposit shall be forfeited as the reasonable costs of the test, and the customer shall be liable for any deficiency over two percent up to three months.
