Water mains may be extended under the following circumstances:
A. 
Building must be in the water and/or sewer district whichever applies.
(1) 
Property must be in the water and/or sewer district, whichever applies to the type of main being applied for.
(2) 
This requirement limits the Town's responsibility to only that property within the district and is consistent to all laws, policies and past practices of the Town of Fallsburg.
B. 
Physical main must be greater than 100 feet from property line.
(1) 
Physical existing Town mains must be greater than 100 feet from the property line.

C. 
All main extensions must be on Town-owned property.
(1) 
All proposed main extensions must be on existing Town land, roads or easements.
(2) 
This requirement restricts landlocked properties and keeps future Town-owned mains within accessible rights-of-way. It avoids land disputes and requires dedication of small easements to the Town.
D. 
Main extensions to property, existing at the time of district formation only. (Subdivision of land does not apply.)
(1) 
Main extensions to properties existing at the time of district formation; any subdivision of property does not apply.

E. 
Property must be accessible by gravity sewer to existing mains.
