[CC 1985 §22-151; Comp. Ords. §18.05(2); Ord. No. 1660 §23, 2-2-1956]
Any person may apply to the City as a prospective customer of
the waterworks system for the extension of water service to such applicant.
Any such extension shall be made in accordance with the terms of this
Article.
[CC 1985 §22-152; Comp. Ords. §18.05(1); Ord. No. 1660 §23(1), 2-2-1956]
No extensions of water mains shall be made using pipe smaller
than four (4) inches in diameter. The actual size of the main required
shall be determined by the Superintendent and shall conform to sound
engineering practice. The only exception to extending any mains smaller
than four (4) inches inside diameter shall be in those locations where
a larger sized pipe than exists at the present time would serve no
useful purpose. The Superintendent's recommendation shall be final
and binding, subject to the review by the engineer of the State Department
of Social Services. All extensions and additions to the waterworks
system shall become the property of the City and shall be subject
to all the rules and regulations as provided by this Article.
[CC 1985 §22-153; Comp. Ords. §18.05(2)(2); Ord. No. 1660 §23(2), 2-2-1956]
A.
Each applicant for water service residing within the City limits not having existing water mains to serve the tract for which service is requested shall be entitled to an extension of the water mains for a distance of fifty (50) feet without any additional charge than that provided for in Section 715.040.
B.
Where
a water main extension of a greater length than the free extension
provided for herein is required to serve an applicant, the extension
will be made by the City upon deposit by the applicant of an amount
of two dollars ($2.00) per foot for each foot of main extension required
in excess of the fifty (50) feet furnished each applicant without
charge. This interest-free deposit shall cover all costs in connection
with such extension, including valves, fittings, fire hydrants or
any other items which may be required. This deposit shall be defined
as a construction advance.
[CC 1985 §22-154; Comp. Ords. §18.05(2)(6); Ord. No. 1660 §23(3)(4), 2-2-1956]

housing and industrial developments and similar projects would come
under this heading.
