Iona City Code is amended as follows:
8-2-4: EXCLUSIVITY OF WATER SYSTEMCRANTINC OF FRANCHISE
PROHIBITED.
(A) Granting of Franchise Prohibited. No person shall be granted any franchise or permit
to furnish or supply any inhabitant within the boundaries of the City any water for domestic
or culinary use or for sprinkling of lawns and gardens within any portion thereof where the
Water Mains have been extended or may hereafter be extended so as to supply said
property with water.
(B) Private Emergency Wells. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each property or lot within
the City may construct one private emergency well, subject to the following provisions:
(1) Restrictions. Every private emergency well shall be subject to the following
restrictions:
(a) The well is only for emergency use and may not be connected to the
primary building on the property to provide water for domestic or culinary
uses, including the irrigation or sprinkling of lawns, gardens, or plants.
(b) The well may not be connected in any way to the Water System.
AIL T 11 ma s ovide -- to •_„LcadElikisi,_ not resi•mg . he
property on which the well is located.
(d) Because the well may not be considered an accessory or other use of
property,the property on which the well is located must be located in a zone
that specifically allows for private wells (e.g., as a permitted use or
conditional use, subject to other applicable law) and the well itself must
comply with all applicable zoning requirements (for example, setbacks).
(e) The well must comply with all applicable laws, including the regulations of
the Idaho Department of Water Resources and the Idaho Department of
Environmental Quality.
(f) The property owner must obtain and maintain a permit from the City for the
well.
(2) Application for Permit. Any property owner desiring a well permit in
accordance with this subsection (B) must submit an application containing the
property owner's name and contact information; the property's address and legal
description; the zone in which the property is located; the name and contact
information of the person constructing the well; the details of the well itself;
evidence of the property owner's compliance with any requirements of the Idaho
Department of Water Resources and/or the Idaho Department of Environmental
Quality; a visual depiction (or site map)of the property showing the location of the
well, any infrastructure relating to the well, utility easements on the property, other
buildings on the property, and any other details relevant to the well; consent to an
initial and, thereafter, annual site inspection of the well; and any other details
necessary to evaluate the safety of the well. A non-refundable application fee in
the amount of$100 shall be paid at the time the application is submitted.
(3) Site Inspection. Once the application is submitted, the City will conduct a site
inspection to verify the details of the application and the well's compliance with
this subsection (B). This inspection shall be in addition to any other inspection
required under the circumstances of the well (for example, building inspections).
(4) Permit Approval and Annual Re-Inspection. After the site inspection if the
City determines that the well complies with all the requirements of this subsection
(B), the City personnel who conducted the site inspection may approve the
application, issue a permit, and inform the Mayor and the City Clerk. After a
permit is issued, the City may inspect the well no more than annually, after
providing reasonable notice to the property owner. The failure to allow such
annual inspection shall be cause for the City to revoke the permit and require the
property owner to remove the well and completely fill in and remediate the location
of the well.
