Fire protection pipes to be used in case of fire will be allowed within and without buildings on the following conditions:

A. When the owner of a building desires, or when the Building Code, Fire Code, or other City ordinance or code provision requires a certain capacity pipe to supply water to an automatic fire sprinkler system the pipe shall be metered with an approved proportional meter or detector check meter at the property line.

B. The owner or agent of the building shall agree in writing that water supplied through this service will not be used for any purpose except extinguishing a fire. If it is found that connections other than for fire protection have been added to the system or that registration is recorded on the meter or detector check, the immediate installation of a compound meter will be required and installed by the City, and the cost of materials and labor will be borne by the property owner.
