Kingdom City Fire Hydrants ordinance (§ 700.450)

A. Private fire hydrants may be installed by a written agreement with the Village. The Village shall take into account all possible costs to the Village and shall charge an equitable price according to all the cost factors that have been considered. Public fire hydrants may be installed by special agreement with the State, a municipality, political subdivision or political corporation, and the Village shall take into consideration the same factors when entering into such a contract.

B. If the Village undertakes to provide fire hydrants as a part of the service to the users of the Village, then all users of the Village shall be provided with substantially the same degree of benefit from the hydrants. If a substantially same degree of benefit is not possible, then those receiving a higher degree of benefit shall pay an additional charge above the rates herein provided for the additional benefit. Such rates shall be equitable to all users and shall depend upon cost studies made by the Village's employees or consultants.
