The property owner shall pay costs of running connecting lines

property owners. The said costs shall consist of the actual costs
of material and labor, plus 10% for collection, supervision, and
the overhead costs. Such connection shall be made only upon application

application. Where excavation is to be made in hard surfaced
street, the deposit shall be $50.00. In all other cases the deposit
shall be $20.00. The deposit will be applied on the cost of the
work. If the cost be less than the deposit a refund of the difference
will be made. If the deposit proves insufficient to cover the
costs as above stated a bill will be rendered the property owner
for the balance.
