8-1-8: EXTENSION OF WATER MAINS WITHIN CITY:
The public works superintendent shall be authorized to construct, or cause to be constructed, extensions to the water system if one of the following conditions exists:
   A.   Anticipated Revenue: The annual anticipated revenue made available to the city from the customers to be immediately served by such extension is not less than one-tenth (1/10) of the actual cost to the city for the construction of said extension.
   B.   Declaration Of Necessity: The public works superintendent declares that the water main extension is needed for the overall benefit and improvement of the entire water distribution system.
   C.   Contract With Parties Desiring Service: The city approves a contract for the construction of the extension with a party or parties desiring water service. Provided, however, that subdividers or developers within or adjacent to the city shall construct at their own expense all water mains within their subdivisions or developments, where a water subscription agreement has not been executed by the property owner and where the water system is not, as of the effective date hereof, connected to any city water system. The above referenced water connection fee will not apply to or be charged against the reconstruction of any existing water service line serving any existing dwelling, building, etc. It is intended that this water connection fee be charged only where a new building is being constructed on previously undeveloped property or where an existing building is being connected to the water system without its property owner having previously executed a water subscription agreement with the city. (Ord. 984, 7-5-1995)
