Denton Adopts Plumbing and Sewer Ordinance for Town
The Denton commissioners adopt a town wide plumbing and sewer ordinance governing installation on private property and public spaces. It requires permits from the clerk for one dollar, mandates experienced plumbers under water works supervision, and sets penalties for violations. The ordinance prohibits frost proof toilets without permits, cross connections, and improper sewers, with sections on reporting and safety. It takes effect upon adoption and repeals conflicting regulations.
