(A) No person shall connect with the town water system until application for permission to do so has been made, in writing, to the Public Works Director, which application shall contain an agreement to abide by all provisions of this chapter as conditions governing the use of town water by the applicant. The application shall be accompanied by such fees as may, from time to time, be required by the Town Council for the turning on of water service, and such related services as may be required, together with such user deposit as may be required.
(B) Submission of an application to the town for a water connection, or water service, shall constitute consent of the applicant for town employees, and agents, to enter upon the premises served at reasonable times, and in a reasonable manner, to perform such activities as may be required to fulfill the purposes, and intent, of this article, and to ensure compliance with the provisions hereof.
(C) So as to avoid the perpetuation of private wells and private septic tank systems, and to protect the health and safety of the residents of the town and the surrounding area, no application for water service, or sewer service, for any premises to which the town’s water distribution system, or sanitary sewer system, are both available, as provided by this chapter, shall be granted unless the applicant requests both water and sewer service from the town.
