(A) The owner of any improved property abutting upon any street in which there is a main constituting part of the water system shall connect such improved property with such main via a lateral and shall use such water system, in such manner as the Authority may require, within 90 days after notice to such owner from this borough to make such connection; subject, however, to such limitations and restrictions as shall be established herein or otherwise shall be established by this borough, from time to time.
(B) The notice by this borough to make a connection to a main, referred to in division (A) above, shall consist of a copy of this chapter, including any amendments and/or supplements at the time in effect, or a summary hereof, and a written or printed document requiring the connection in accordance with the provisions of this chapter and specifying that such connection shall be made within 90 days after the date such notice is given or served. Such notice may be given or served at any time after the appropriate lateral is in place that can deliver water to the particular improved property. Such notice shall be given to or served upon the owner by personal service or by registered mail to his or her last known address, or by such other means as shall be permitted by law.
(C) Notwithstanding the provisions of this section, the borough, with the consent of the Authority, shall have the right to grant an exemption from the terms of this section to permit the use of a water well for the sole purpose of watering or irrigating parks, athletic fields, or playgrounds which are owned or leased by a municipal subdivision or school district or which are otherwise primarily used for public recreational purposes.
