Sec. 86-53Pressure
Plain English: what this chapter covers
This chapter covers Ashburn's city-run water, sewer and natural gas service. It sets the rules on connection permits, deposits, meters, late penalties and shutoffs, disputing a bill, and the city's right to come on your property to read meters and fix lines. It also covers outdoor watering hours, what you can and can't put down the sewer, when you have to tie into city sewer, and how the gas system extends lines to new customers. The actual rates and deposit amounts aren't in the code. They're kept on file with the city clerk.
The City will generally supply natural gas at a pressure of approximately 0.25 pounds per square inch gauge ("psig"). The city and the customer, however, may mutually agree upon a higher pressure at which gas shall be delivered. In no event shall the city be required to furnish gas to the customer at a pressure exceeding two psig for residential service, or five psig for all other classes of service, except to the extent that the city has agreed to do so by written agreement.
This is a plain-English guide, not legal advice. The official code is on Municode and at City Hall. Our copy is from April 30, 2026.
