Where the city council finds that, in densely populated areas and in specified locations therein, due to the absence of water and sewer service, the public welfare would be best served by making extensions at its own cost, and after due investigation and consideration, in order to eliminate extremely unhealthful conditions which are contributing factors to epidemics and where money is available for such purposes, it is the express policy of the city council when expressed by its resolution, to extend water and wastewater mains into these densely populated areas. When lines are extended following such resolution, the property owner shall be required to pay development charges over and above the rates and charges established by this article when such property is connected to the water and wastewater main. These development charges may be paid in such a manner as the city council determines.
