Sec. 21-34. - Community water systems.

Whenever a subdivider proposes to form a community water system to supply domestic water from one source to the proposed subdivision lots, the subdivider may be required to set up a mutual water company composed of property owners or some other single business proprietorship or business entity to construct, operate, control, maintain, repair, and, if necessary, enlarge such community water supply system. All of the provisions of state law relating to such water supply systems shall be strictly complied with.

(Ord. No. 1722, pt. 6, § 1)

Sec. 21-35. - Permits.

State law requires the water purveyor to obtain a permit before furnishing water to a user.

In order to obtain adequate data, all or part of the following information when related to the proposed water supply system may be required before an application for a water supply permit will be accepted for processing:

(a)
