(A) (1) An accessible, adequate, safe and potable water supply shall be provided in each trailer court or mobile home court, capable of furnishing a minimum of 150 gallons per day per trailer space. An independent water supply to serve a trailer court shall be developed only after express approval has been granted by the Health Officer. Where a public supply of water of such quality is available, connection shall be made thereto and that supply be used exclusively.
(2) The water system of a trailer court or mobile home court shall be connected and distributed by pipes to all buildings and to all trailer spaces or mobile home spaces.
(3) Water piping shall be constructed and maintained in accordance with city ordinances. The water system shall not be connected with non-potable water or water supplies which have not been approved by the Health Officer, and shall be protected against backflow or backsiphonage.
(4) Individual water service connections shall be constructed so that they will not be damaged by parking trailers or mobile homes. The trailer or mobile home court water system shall be adequate to provide at least 20 pounds per square inch of pressure at all trailer or mobile home connections.
(1976 Code, § 10-521)
(B) (1) Where an independent or private water system is used to serve a trailer or mobile home court with water obtained from wells, the well shall have been approved by the Health Officer, and shall have been drilled or driven. Springs or other sources of supply shall not be used unless approved by the Health Officer.
(2) Every well which serves a trailer or mobile home court shall be located and constructed in such a manner that neither underground nor surface contamination will reach the water supply from any source. A minimum distance of 150 feet shall be maintained between the water supply and any cesspool. A minimum distance of 100 feet shall be maintained between the water supply and any other possible source of contamination; except that, sewers or pipes through which sewage may back up shall be located at least 50 feet from any well or water suction pipeline. Where such sewers or pipes are specifically constructed to provide adequate safeguards and when specifically authorized by the Health Officer, such sewers or pipes through which sewage may back up may be closer than 50 feet, but not less than 30 feet from a well.
(3) No well-casings, pumps, pumping machinery or suction pipes which serve a trailer or mobile home court shall be located in any pit, room or space extending below ground level, nor in any room or space above ground which is walled in or otherwise enclosed, unless such rooms, whether above or below ground, have free drainage by gravity to the surface of the ground, and the floor of rooms above ground shall be at least six inches above grade; such floors shall be water-tight, and sloped from the pump pedestal to the drain. The pedestal shall be not less than 12 inches above the floor.
(1976 Code, § 10-522)
