SUBDIVISIONS § 22-10 ments or triangulation stations in or adjacent to the property shall be preserved in precise position, and (2) Shall have determined the most feasible method of obtaining water for the subdivision, be in a position to demonatrate such feasibility, to the satisfaction of the city council or such technical agenta as it may designate, and be willing and able to contract with the city (as a condition of subdivision plat approval) to produce the type of water supply demonstrated most feasible for the subdivision; water may be provided by individual house wells or by a system consisting of central well(s) and pumping station(s) and piping to supply individual homes. It is the announced policy of the city that a central well system for each new subdivision is favored on the basis of greater assurance of public health, reliability of supply, economy in installation of purification equipment if necessary, more effective fire fighting through hy- drants, etc., and probable lowered insurance and maintenance costa to individual owners. Accordingly, the city strongly recommends central deep well systems for subdivisions, with cost of equipment prorated to the number of parcels served and the equipment itself, including the well, pumps, tanks, etc., and the lateral feeders as may be appropriate, to be deeded to the city. A pattern of such well systems, if developed over the years, will simplify and make more economical the construction of any future city-wide water syatem.
