The owner of property of the type described in § 50.01 applying for sewer and/or water service from the city shall fill out an application for the same at the office of the City Clerk on an application form to be furnished by the city giving his or her name, address, the legal description of the property for which sewer and/or water service is requested and the type of hookup required, whether water, sewer or both. The City Clerk shall transmit the application to the City Engineer who shall forthwith determine the cost to the property owner in accordance with the provisions of § 50.02. Upon computing the cost, the City Engineer shall bring the matter before the City Council, which body shall authorize or disapprove the application by minute order. In making a determination in this regard, the City Council shall consider, among other relevant factors, the physical location of the property to be served in relationship to existing facilities and the amount of expense, if any, to the city in giving the service requested for which there will not be an immediate return to the city. The City Council may reject any such application if the property requesting service is physically remote from existing facilities or if the expense to the city is disproportionate; if the application is approved by the City Council, the same shall then be acted on by the Superintendent of Public Works but only after the property owner has either paid to the city the full sum required thereby or entered into a written agreement with the city to pay the same on completion of the work required thereby either in full or on a stipulated installment basis.
