(A) A credit equal to the cost of furnishing and installing 35 feet of the main extension for each bonafide customer may be credited against the total cost of the main extension by the city. In cases where the main extension is not to be made with city forces, the city may elect to pay said credit or to install such portion of the main, with its own forces, as will equal the credit based on 35 feet per bonafide customer.
(B) In determining the length of and necessity for any extension to a bona fide customer, the terminal point of such extension shall, in all cases, be to or beyond that point which lies in the road or street and which is located in such fashion that the service and building connections can be installed at right angles to the main to serve the proposed meter location on the last lot for which service is requested. However, in the extension of any system of distribution mains to a real estate development, the length of mains shall include any necessary additional mains required for the rendition of adequate service within the development.
(C) A BONAFIDE CUSTOMER within the meaning of this chapter shall mean a prospective customer who has signed an application for water service and agreed, in writing, to have water furnished by the city for a period of one year or more.
