Services for fire protection shall be fitted with such fixtures only as are needed for fire protection, and shall be installed entirely separate from all City water service lines and customer water service lines used for other purposes, and be kept entirely separate from all other such lines, except as provided in the building conservation code currently adopted by the City or authorized by the Utilities Director. Any water pipe which shall be installed as a fire protection line, either sprinkler systems or otherwise, and all valves or openings must be sealed by the Water Division and the seals shall not be broken, except in case of fire. Immediate notice of breaking of any seal must be given to the Water Division. All services for fire protection located after the valve isolating the fire protection line from the water main shall be considered to be private fire service lines and shall be the responsibility of the property owner. It shall be the duty and responsibility of the property owner to keep the private fire service line in good repair. In the event the property owner fails to maintain the private fire service line, then the City may undertake the needed repair and assess the cost of repair to the real property serviced by the private fire service line.
