A charge of $200.00 shall be made and deposited with the City at the time of making of an application for a new service (connection within the City, and a charge of $275.00 for a connec- tion outside of the City. Under these conditions the City shall tap its main for a 3/4 inch service, provide and install 3/4 inch copper tubing, type "K ", or such other material approved by the Director of Public Works, necessary to reach to within two feet of the property line, and provide and install a 3/4 inch curb stop. The customer shall be required to provide and install a 3/4 inch copper tubing, type "K ", or such other material approved by the Director of Public Works, from the City curb stop to his structure, and to provide a shut -off on his premises. Any request for in- stallation of service larger than 3/4 inch shall be metered, and the cost of the meter added to the tap -in fee. No water line shall be laid within three feet, either vertically or horizontally, of a sanitary sewer trench. Each building requiring water service must have a separate tap to a city main, unless otherwise approved by the City Manager. Where a new main is laid in the street and the cus- tomer is being served from another location, he will be allowed three months to change and connect his service line to the new main at his expense in the same manner as for a new service. No customer will be served unless the main is in- stalled under City supervision and specifications, and a deed to the main and an easement for right of way, where necessary, is I ;given to the City. All expenses incurred in the above installation ,shall be paid by the customer. Before constructing new mains, 50 per cent of the tap fees for the area to be ultimately served must be paid prior to the City constructing the new lines. Where extensions are re- jquired across areas that will not be used for residential purposes, the cost of the extension will be added to the tap -in fee of the area to be served. Where property is not subdivided, for tap -in ti ;fee purposes, it shall be assumed the land is divided into 50 foot lots. The mains will at all times be the property of the City."
