A. Within City: The public works director shall be authorized to construct, or cause to be constructed, extensions to the water system if one of the following conditions exist:
1. The annual anticipated revenue made available to the city from the customers to be immediately served by such extension is not less than one-tenth (1/10) of the actual cost to the city for the construction of said water main extension.
2. The public works director declares that the water main extension is needed for the overall benefit and improvement of the entire water distribution system.
3. The city council approves a contract for the construction of the water main extension with a party or parties desiring water service. Provided, however, that subdividers or developers within or adjacent to the city shall construct at their own expense all water mains, facilities and appurtenances required within their subdivisions or developments except that the city will be responsible for those water line costs set forth in section 8-1-29 of this chapter. (1980 Code § 4.6.10; amd. 1999 Code)
B. Areas Contiguous To City: In areas contiguous to the city that may be annexed to the city, the city may require such areas to be annexed before water service is provided. Prior to annexation, the city shall require the execution and approval of an annexation agreement which shall detail the conditions for water service. (1980 Code § 4.6.11)
C. Outside City: Water mains shall not, without the city council's approval, be extended outside the corporate limits of the city; however, when, in the opinion of the public works director, there will be special benefit and improvement to the water distribution system by reason of an extension outside the city, special arrangements may be made with the council to allow said extension. Provided, however, that the areas to be serviced outside of the city shall not benefit to a greater extent than like areas provided with water within the city; and provided, further, that no such arrangements shall be made unless adequate excess water is available for such outside the city water service. (1980 Code § 4.6.12; amd. 1999 Code)
