No person shall be permitted to connect any water or sewer main
or service line to any part of the City's water and sewer system
which lies outside the corporate limits of the City unless the owner
of the land submits a petition for annexation of the land into the
City.
Such person shall file a voluntary petition for annexation with
a notarized affidavit, a copy of the property title search, letter
of intent, a CD containing the legal description in an acceptable
format and the appropriate fees. Exhibit A is attached to this ordinance
and is held on file in the City offices.
Service line connections may be made into the water and sewer mains with authorization made by the Superintendent of Public Works. All taps and monthly service charges shall be double of what classified users in the City limits pay for such services if such users choose not to annex into the City limits. Those cost are in Chapter
700 of the City Code.
