(A) The Water Superintendent or person authorized by him or her will tap the main, inserting a stopcock which shall be known as the corporation cock.
(B) He or she shall connect the service pipe and lay it to within one foot inside the curb line, or just outside of the lot line if in an alley and there set a stop cock, which shall be known as the service cock, together with the service cock box.
(1) One service pipe may be used to supply water to all buildings within the property lines of the lot providing that the service line is connected to a tap used for that lot only.
(2) There shall be a stop and waste cock attached to every supply pipe at the point where it enters the building so as to permit the water being shut off if necessary.
(3) All taps through one inch must be approved by the Water Superintendent. Larger taps must have Council approval.
(4) No connections with the mains shall be made during freezing weather unless approved by the Superintendent.
(5) The homeowner will be charged a tap fee. The location and length of the pipe connections necessary shall be determined by the Water Superintendent. The homeowner shall furnish his or her own pipe, dig his or her trench, and connect onto the service box at his or her own cost.
(6) No trench shall be dug in any street or alley of the city without written permission of the Water Superintendent and under his or her supervision; and in case the city elects to push the water pipe through the ground, instead permitting a trench to be dug, the applicant for water shall pay the charge for use of the pusher, as fixed by the Water Superintendent.
(7) The city will hereafter maintain the same service to present users of its water service, as the occasion therefor arises, as that provided in this section for new users.
