(a) a service deposit shall be required which shall be equal to an estimate of the cost of sixty (60)

upon information received from the applicant. The utility office shall review the estimate and
within the first three months make the appropriate adjustment in the deposit amount.
(b) Commercial deposits shall be made in cash. The Director of Finance or his or her authorized
representative may authorize an alternative method of deposit for commercial accounts on a

(c) When and if it is found that the deposit required and is collected in accordance with the above
schedule is not sufficient to protect the City from losses that may occur over a period of two (2)
months, the Director of Finance may, at his or her discretion, require an additional cash deposit,
or may require an additional deposit if for any reason the amount of the deposit becomes less
than the originally required under the schedules hereinabove set forth.
