If the City Manager determines that a credit is warranted based on such methodology, then a credit shall be authorized and made against future water bills for the separate irrigation taps, over such period of time, not to exceed one year, as is determined by the City Manager. All determinations of the City Manager pursuant to this paragraph shall be fmal. Nothing herein shall be construed to require the granting of any credit, and the City Council at any time may determine to adjust any portion of the foregoing credit program, or to cancel such program in its entirety, without liability of any kind.
