(A) The village shall not be required to extend service within the village limits a distance of more than 100 feet per customer, and only then when sufficient funds are available, in excess of those required for the proper operation of the system. Extension of mains and service outside of the village limits shall be subject to approval of the Board and shall be also subject to all of the rules and regulations and provisions as provided herein or as may be amended.
(B) Where service is desired when funds for extensions are not available or/and when the distance is in excess of the 100 feet per customer noted above, such extension can be made if the applicant will deposit with the village the estimated cost of making the extension, less 100 feet, when funds are available, or the entire amount when funds are not available. The amount so deposited shall be refunded to such consumer or consumers at the rate of 50% of each monthly billing until the total deposited has been refunded. Such deposit shall be interest free. In the event that the amount deposited is greater or less than the actual cost of the extension, such excess or deficiency shall be corrected prior to giving service.
(C) Deposits made under the provisions of this section shall not exempt the applicant from the payment of all other charges required by this chapter.
(D) Amounts received by the village for such extensions shall be deposited in the Meter Deposit Fund and payments for refunds shall likewise be paid from the same fund.
