Before applying for a New Construction Connection Application, please review the following items:
  • The new construction permit has already been issued
  • The Permit Board is onsite and visible with the permit inside (If not, a fee equivalent to 50% of the meter installation fee will be added to your permit)
  • The final elevation grade stakes have been installed when the site borders a vacant lot
  • The area is clear of debris and construction materials (If not, a fee equivalent to 50% of the meter installation fee will be added to your permit)
  • For Multifamily & Commercial Dual Water installs, an approved RPZ has been installed on the Potable Water Service
  • Connections to potable water and irrigation water can only occur after the City’s installation of the meter(s) and Kit A. Any connection made prior to the City installations will be considered an ‘unauthorized connection’ as outlined in Chapter 19 Section 22 of the City’s Code of Ordinances, and will result in meter installation delays, penalties and estimated service charges.
