The purpose of this chapter is to provide for the comprehensive management of the potable water resources of the city and for the beneficial management of the city's water resources, to minimize potential for rendering the city's water system inoperative, reduced in value or useless, and to promote the public health, benefit and welfare. To that end, it is expressly declared to be city policy to require all persons owning or occupying property within the city or the city's sphere of influence to apply for and receive water service from the city's water system.
