It caps outside-city sewage use, sets 3 per front foot for main extensions, and requires upfront payment by developers for cross roads and extensions.
The city may proceed with water main installation on isolated streets if two thirds of frontage is paid, even with some landowner opposition. Later connections pay $3 per front foot, unless tying to an older line. Extensions to institutions or industry require adequate revenue to justify the project.
