None of the water and sewer is used in any endeavor which sells or rents a commodity or provides a service for a fee. Each point of service is separately metered and billed. A responsible legal entity is established as the customer to whom the Utility can render its bills, and receive payment for said service. Membership in the Homeowners' Association which controls and operates the common facilities is required as a condi- tion of property ownership in the subdivision; and such requirement arises from restrictions of record which are set out or incorporated by reference on each member home- owner's deed. Such restrictions require each member homeowner to pay his proportionate share of the costs of operating and main- taining the common facilities. This obligation to pay must be enforceable by placement of a lien on the member homeowner's property and by foreclosure for non-payment of such liens. The Homeowners' Associations are comprised of persons owning contiguous lots in a planned development, and the commonly owned facilities are located within the develop- ment. E. A customer account deposit shall not be required of other utilities if the City has an account for service from the customer. SECTION 2: That Resolution No. R-86-315 is hereby repealed since the rates and charges set forth herein have been readopted by the passage of this resolution. SECTION 3: This Resolution shall become effective immediately upon adoption.
