This structure is <br />consistent with the industry and nearby communities in Florida as demonstrated in Figure 8. If there is no <br />meter service available, then IRCDUS charges using an imputed volume charge of 3,000 gallons for <br />mobile/manufactured homes, 7,000 gallons for residences less than 3,500 square feet, and 12,000 for <br />residences more than 3,500 square feet. <br />27 Rates as of March 25, 2024 <br />29 <br />
