[Ord. No. 254-A §1, 11-14-2005]
The City of Hallsville has determined that due to the continuing
growth of the community, the current sanitary sewer system needs scheduled
maintenance performed on its infrastructure to insure the ability
to provide this service to the community. The continuing development
has created an impact on our sanitary sewer service and that impact
creates the need for more maintenance and for the expansion of our
current system.
