Any person desiring to construct a water line beyond the then-existing City lines, and connect it to the City water system, shall first make application to Council for its approval of such construction and connection, and he shall not proceed with any such construction or make any such connection to the City water system until such approval has been obtained from the Health Department. This application shall be made in the form of a letter outlining the proposed project and accompanied by detailed plans and specifications which shall contain all information pertinent to design and construction of the proposed water system. Three copies of the plans and specifications must be submitted. The copies thereof, if approved by Council, shall be signed by the Mayor and one copy thereof shall be returned to the applicant and one copy thereof shall be filed in the office of the Mayor and the other copy thereof shall be filed in the office of the Director of Public Works. In general, the design and construction of all water lines shall comply with sound recognized engineering practices and water line construction standards. No plan shall be approved and no connection to the water lines shall be allowed to render service at an elevation above 1,211 feet mean sea level unless such plans provide for maintaining 30 pounds PSI static and 20 pounds PSI under all conditions of flow by means approved by Council. Council reserves the right to invoke any requirements which are deemed necessary for the protection of the property owners served and the satisfactory operation, and future maintenance, of the City water system.
