1 for at least twelve months shall be considered a dormant service and shall 2 be removed from the main by the Water Department. If a dormant service has not been removed from the main by the Water Department 3 and the service pipe material is plastic or copper and has been determined to be a good service by the Water Department, then the Water Depar- tment4 shall charge a minimum fee of fifty dollars to test and re-connect the existing dormant service. If a service connection is subsequently 5 desired for all or a portion of the premises or property previously supplied by a dormant service which has been removed from the main by the Water 6 Department, the owner of the premises or property or its authorized agent shall make application and pay for a new service connection in the manner prescribed herein and without any credit whatsoever for the 7 dormant service." 8 Section 6: Section 2 of Ordinance No. 4294 (EMC 14.16.330) which reads as 9 follows: 10 11 "At such time as the Water Department or developer is installing a section of distribution system piping in a new plat or subdivision, the Water 12 Department or developer shall, at the same time, install water service piping from the main to each of the platted lots. It is the intent of this 13 section to minimize the number of "open-cuts" required in a newly paved street in order to provide water service to subsequently constructed 14 homes. Similarly, for other developments requiring new mains, the developer may elect to install services at the time of main installation. 15 The cost of materials, labor and equipment necessary to complete the service line installations to city standards shall be borne by the developer 16 or local improvement district paying for the distribution system piping. At such time as a request is made for a building permit, the individual 17 making the application shall deposit with the Water Department, the sum of sixty dollars for a service connection of any size which has been 18 previously installed complete by a developer or local improvement district. Such sum shall be used to complete the necessary records and 19 accounting for the new service. If a service of a different size or type than that previously installed is needed, then the individual requiring the 20 new service will have to purchase the new service at the standard rate then charged by the Water Department." 21 22 shall be amended to read hereafter as follows: 23 "At such time as the Water Department or developer is installing a section 24 of distribution system piping in a new plat or subdivision, the Water Department or developer shall, at the same time, install water service 25 piping from the main to each of the platted lots.
