Each building on one lot or parcel of land shall
be served by a separate water or sewer connection, a building for
this purpose being any structure a part thereof intended for a single
occupancy on the street floor.
In case it is found that more than one building
is being served by the same water building connection or the same
sewer building connection in violation of the above regulation, the
Mayor shall take action to correct such violation under the following
procedure:
A. The owner of the property involved shall be notified
by registered United States mail that the violation exists and that
the situation must be corrected by a given date.
B. If the owner does not comply with the above notice,
the Water Superintendent shall shut off the water and remove the water
meter serving such property until the situation is corrected to his
or her satisfaction, at which time water service will be resumed after
payment of all costs to which the Town may be subjected in the above
matter.
C. If the property owner refuses to comply with the above
order, the Town shall take such further legal action as is provided
by law.
The water or sewer service pipes for any building,
lot, premises or establishment shall not be laid over or through any
other building, lot, premises or establishment, except in an approved
right-of-way or easement, and no person shall connect or cause to
be connected any building, lot, premises or establishment with the
water or sewer service pipe belonging to or supplying any other building,
lot, premises or establishment. However, this regulation shall not
prevent a dwelling with a private garage upon the rear of the same
lot or parcel of land from being supplied by the same service pipe;
but if the garage is converted wholly or partially into a dwelling
or place of business, a separate connection shall be installed under
such conditions as the Mayor and Council may require.
[Amended by Ord. No. 97-110]
A single trailer located on a lot or parcel
of land will not be permitted to be connected to the water and sewer
mains unless the trailer installation is in compliance with all local,
county, state and federal laws or regulations governing the same.
