Every oil or gas well drilled within one mile of the site of any existing or designated future municipal water well of the city shall have casing set and cemented down to the first impervious stratum below the Trinity Sand formation; and similar casing shall be set and cemented on wells located at greater distances from such water wells when requested by the City Council. The requirement may be waived by the City Council for good cause shown after due hearing; but if not waived by the City Council may be enforced by injunction or any other available remedy. No drilling permit shall ever be issued to any person, firm, or corporation for the drilling or operation of any well, when such person, firm, or corporation is in default hereunder; and any such permit inadvertently issued shall be deemed wholly void from the beginning.
