A.
The owner of each newly constructed premises, building or structure
used for human occupancy shall at the owner's expense (unless
such expense is expressly provided by other sources) install suitable
plumbing facilities therein and connect such facilities to the water
distribution system if available. For any single-family residence
or duplex, public water shall be deemed available if any portion of
such dwelling is located within 200 feet of any right-of-way, easement,

system. As to all other premises, buildings or structures used for
human occupancy, public water shall be deemed available if:

premises, building or structure is situated on any parcel, lot or
site unit abutting on any right-of-way or easement in which there
is located a public water supply system; or
(2)

boundary of the parcel, lot, or site unit on which the premises, building,
or structure is situated within 200 feet of any right-of-way, highway,
street or public way in which is located the water distribution system.

the Township determines said proposed connection to be inappropriate
for the proper operation of the water distribution system.

section for any premises, building or structure used for human occupancy
existing at the time of this amendment, the owner shall at the owner's
expense (unless such expense is expressly provided by other sources)
install suitable plumbing facilities therein and connect such facilities
to the water distribution system upon the occurrence of any of the
