Such service charges may be charged to and collected from any person contracting for such connection or use or service or from the owner or occupant, or both of them, of any real property which directly or indirectly is or has been connected with a sewerage system, or from or on which originates or has originated sewage which directly or indirectly has entered or may enter into a sewerage system, and the owner or occupant, or both of them, of any such real property shall be liable for and shall pay such service charges to the County at the time when and place where the County Council, by ordinance, rule or regulation, determines that such charges are due and payable.(b) Such service charges shall, as near as the County Council deems practicable and equitable, be uniform throughout the area served by the sewerage system, and may be based or computed either on the consumption of water on or in connection with the real property, making due allowances for commercial use of water, or on the number and kind of water outlets on or in connection with the real property, or on the number and kind of plumbing or sewerage fixtures or facilities on or in connection with the real property, or on the number of persons residing or working on or otherwise connected or identified with the real property, or on other factors determining the type, class and amount of use or service of the sewerage system, or on any combination of any such factors.48 Del.
