(A) Connections to Public Water Supply. When, in the opinion of the Director of Utilities, suitable water mains are reasonably accessible and of adequate capacity to supply the extended area without impairing service to others to be served from the existing system, each lot within the subdivision shall be provided with a connection to such water supply. However, no such connection shall be required to lots beyond the corporate limits unless approved by the Mayor. Fire hydrants shall be installed at intervals of not more than 500 feet when a public water supply is available.
(B) Private Water Supplies. When subdivisions are located outside the City limits and no approved public water supply is reasonably accessible or procurable, the subdivider shall construct wells for a private water supply in such a manner that an adequate supply of potable water is available to each lot in the subdivision. No such well or private water supply shall be used until approved by the Lima-Allen County Board of Health.
