§ 25-34. Stop boxes.

(a)

Except as hereinafter provided, stop boxes shall be required as set forth in sections 25-21 through 25-24 and shall be located at the customer's property line. All stop boxes must be visible above final grade before a certificate of occupancy will be granted. Stop boxes must conform to final grade, as nearly as practical. Where a customer service pipe crosses more than one (1) property line, a stop box shall be required at the first property line between the main and customer service pipe and an additional stop box shall be installed at the customer's property line. The city will maintain the street service pipe up to and including the first stop box. Any secondary stop boxes shall be installed as required elsewhere in this article.

(b)

In the case of mobile home parks with individually metered units, when permitted, each stop box shall be located at the individual mobile home lot line.

(c)

Where no stop box exists, then the city can install a stop box at the point of delivery or right-of-way line.

(d)

It is the customer's responsibility to provide the stop box location to the codes administrator.
