(A) The city reserves the right to install or oversize any water main extension.

(B) A developer causing an extension of water mains shall pay in full for the rights-of-way, the construction and installation of the lines, pipes, mains, and hydrants and all other expenses necessary for the extension; and upon acceptance of the improvements by the city, the developer shall relinquish his entire interest in the improvements, the rights-of-way and all claims to any future reimbursement by reason of the city’s providing future service to others from the main; provided, that if the city chooses to intervene under Section 12.05.300, the city may agree to give a developer credits against special water line fees where a developer extends mains a substantial distance outside his development.

(C) When a property is determined to have public water availability, the property owner may connect to the water system. If the property owner desires to connect to the city water system then the property owner shall extend the public water main across the parcel frontage for a distance of thirty (30) feet. The property owner shall also convey any required easements to the city including those necessary for future main line extensions. The extension will be triggered when the property owner connects to the city water system. It may be determined that the water extension is limited by existing conditions such as grade or alignment. In such cases, the public works director shall determine the extent of the line extension. (Ord. No. 203, § 2, 8-8-84; Ord. No. 2019-02, § 1, 2-5-19. 1976 Code § 14-7-2)
