No person may connect any temporary service pipe to the city water mains or distribution lines without the approval of the Utilities Director. Persons wishing to make a temporary service pipe connection shall file a written request for such connection with the Grand Island Utilities Director, specifying the connection desired to be made, giving the number of feet of service pipe required, a diagram of the premises and equipment to be served, and an estimate as to the duration of the temporary service pipe connection. The Director may, at his or her discretion, approve the temporary service pipe connection which shall be done at the expense of the applicant and under the supervision of the Director. Such temporary service pipe shall at all times be under the absolute control and supervision of the Utilities Department, and the City reserves the right to disconnect the temporary service pipe at any time there is reasonable cause to believe the applicant is failing to comply with the terms and conditions of the temporary connection permit or is jeopardizing either the City water system or the quality of water in the premises or equipment being served. The temporary service pipe permit shall expire at the earliest of either the applicant's estimated time of duration or the connection of the premises or equipment to an approved permanent service line. The applicant may obtain an extension of time on the temporary service pipe permit for good cause shown to the Director.
