B. Each parcel of developed single-family residential property is deemed to contain one equivalent ISU.

1. Single-family residential parcels that contain an additional structure that is equal to or exceeds 3,000 square feet of impervious ground cover will be assessed an additional service charge for each such structure (as defined in BIMC 18.36.030).

C. Other developed property parcels will be assessed utility service charges in accordance with subsection D of this section.

1. Other developed property parcels within mixed-use condominium properties that include both residential and nonresidential properties will be deemed to contain one equivalent ISU per condominium unit.
