MANDATORY CONNECTION TO WATER AND SEWAGE SYSTEMS IN CERTAIN COUNTIES (§
15.2-2110)

A. Amelia, Botetourt, Campbell, Cumberland, Franklin, Halifax, and Nelson
Counties may require connection to their water and sewage systems by owners of
property that may be served by such systems; however, those persons having a
domestic supply or source of potable water and a system for the disposal of
sewage adequate to prevent the contraction or spread of infectious, contagious,
and dangerous diseases shall not be required to discontinue use of the same, but
may be required to pay a connection fee, a front footage fee, and a monthly
nonuser service charge that shall not be more than that proportion of a minimum
monthly user charge as debt service compares to the total operating and debt
service costs.

B. Bland County, Goochland County, Powhatan County, Rockingham County, Smyth
County, and Wythe County may require connection to their water and sewer systems
by owners of property that can be served by the systems if the property, at the
time of installation of such public system, or at a future time, does not have a
then-existing, correctable, or replaceable domestic supply or source of potable
water and a then-existing, correctable, or replaceable system for the disposal
of sewage adequate to prevent the contraction or spread of infectious,
contagious, and dangerous diseases. Such county may not charge a fee for
connection to its water and sewer systems until such time as connection is
required. However, Bland County, Smyth County, and Wythe County, in assuming the
obligations of a public service authority, may assume such obligations under the
same terms and conditions as applicable to the public service authority.
			The provisions of this subsection as they apply to Goochland County shall
become effective on July 1, 2002.

C. Buckingham County may require connection to its water and sewer systems by
owners of property that can be served by the systems if the property, at the
time of installation of such public system, or at a future time, does not have a
then-existing or correctable domestic supply or source of potable water and a
then-existing or correctable system for the disposal of sewage adequate to
prevent the contraction or spread of infectious, contagious, and dangerous
diseases. Such county may not charge a fee for connection to its water and sewer
systems until such time as connection is required.
