its water mains along the roads or streets in occupied and developed
areas within the City of Roanoke to serve ~ew customers taking service
under established Meter Rates on the following terms and conditions:
(a) The Water Department shall make an estimate of the cost of the
proposed extension, which shall include all labor and material required, includ-
ing valves,meters,booster stations, stand pipes and/or reconstruction of
existing water mains to which the proposed extension will be connected,
a~d shall further include the Water Department's usual charge for super-
vision, engineering, insurance, tool and accounting expense. If the estimated
cost of the extension is not greater than $65.00 (Sixty-five Dollars) the
Water Department will finance and make the extension.
(b) If the estimated cost of the extension is greater than $65.00 (Sixty-
five .Dollars) the Water Department shall make an estimate of the annual
revenue to be derived from the sale of water to the applicants for service
along the proposed extension. Such estimate shall be based on the ex-
perience of the Water Department from consumption of other customers
similarly situated.
If the estimated cost of the proposed extension exceeds four (4)
times the estimated annual revenue from the sale of water, the applicant
or applicants for service shall pay to the Water Department through an
authorized agent an amount equal to the difference between the estimated
cost of the extension and four (4) times the estimated annual revenue.
(c) The customer or customers shall sign a satisfactory contract
guaranteeing to the Water Department that they will take water service
at their premises within thirty (30) days after the water is turned into
the main.
RULE 21-A.This rule shall govern the extension of the Water Department's mains
in territory which is unoccupied and/or not developed, where there are no
water mains in the streets and/or roadways.

Department a sum of money which is equal to the estimated cost of all the
labor and materials required for the proposed extension, including the
Water Department's usual charge for supervision, engineering, insurance,
tool and accounting expenses. The sum so advanced by the applicant shall
be adjusted to the actual cost of the work as soon as the work and ac-
counting are completed.

first ten (10) years after the water main is installed as follows:
For each new customer taking service from said extension under
established Meter Rates and regular yearly contract, the sum of
$65.00 (Sixty-five dollars).
For each apartment building at least 50% occupied and for each
large permanent consumer, an initial refund of Sixty-five Dollars
($65.00) will be made at the time when such consumer is connected.
Upon the com~pletion of the first yearly billing period for such con-
sumers an additional refund will be made equal in amount to 2-1/2
times the revenue received for the year for service from each apartment
building or large business consumer, less the initial refund of. Simty-
five Dollars ($65.00).
(c) The sum of the refunds made by the Water Department shall
in no event exceed the original amount paid to the Water Departraent.
(d) Extensions made under this rule shall be and remain the
property of the Water Department.
(e) The Water Department reserves the right to further extend
all mains laid under this rule, and consumers connected to such
further extensions shall ~ot entitle the applicant paying for
original extension to a refund for the attaching of such consumers.
(f) Extensions made under this rule shall be of cast iron pipe
not less than $" in diameter for main arteries. If the ~qater Depart-
ment desires to make the extension in pipe larger than 8,, in diameter,
or larger than the size of pipe reasonably required in the judgment
of the Water Department for water service to the community to be served,

the Water Department.
