Consideration of SECOND READING, Ordinance No. 13 - 97, Amending the Lino Lakes City Code by Amendment to Section 401.01, Connection to Municipal Water - Mr. Ahrens explained that the proposed Code revision will allow property owners to connect to one utility (sanitary sewer or water) without the current requirement to connect to the other utility within a seven (7) year time frame from the later date of connection to the first utility or when the second utility is available.
