The owners of property to be served by a proposed water main extension may petition for the construction of the extension and the assessment of the cost thereof in accordance with the provisions of state law.
(A) The size, materials, and all other specifications to be used in the construction of any water main shall be determined by the superintendent, in accordance with "Engineering and Plumbing Requirements" to be promulgated by him and kept on file by him in his office. The requirements shall be kept up to date by the superintendent and shall be open to public inspection at all times. Copies of the requirements may be distributed by the superintendent as may be determined by him from time to time.
(B) No water main extension shall be constructed on any new street or any undedicated street unless the location of the street has been approved by the village planning commission and until all the requirements of all other ordinances, if any, have been complied with.
(C) No water main extension shall be laid in any unimproved street whose profile is such that in case of the improvement of the street, it would be necessary to relay the main to conform with the then established grade and no water main shall be constructed under the provisions of § 51.23, where, owing to the topography of the territory abutting the street, or to other conditions, further property development is precluded or is unlikely.
(D) The superintendent shall maintain a record of all charges outstanding against premises abutting streets improved with water main extension in accordance with § 51.23 or § 51.24. The record shall be suitably indexed as to streets and part of streets, and shall at all times be available for public inspection. With the consent of the county auditor, a duplicate copy of the record shall be kept on file in the office of the county auditor for the convenience of title examiners and prospective purchasers of real estate. As the charges are paid or as new charges are imposed, the necessary notation shall be made in that record by way of amendment or supplement. The notation by way of amendment or supplement shall be copied into the county auditor's duplicate record at intervals of not more than 30 days. The record shall at all times be accompanied by a statement from the superintendent indicating the date to which the record has been carried.
