1. The property for which Reclaimed Water service is sought shall annex to the city as a condition of water connection; or

2. In the alternative, in its sole discretion, the city may elect to defer annexation and require the owners of the property for which Reclaimed Water service is sought to execute an agreement with the city containing a waiver of protest to annexation and grant to the city manager power of attorney authorizing annexation at such time as the city determines the property should be annexed to the city. The agreement shall contain a provision that the obligations and privileges contained therein shall run with the land and bind future owners of said land in the same manner as the applicant is bound therein. In addition, the agreement shall not be executed prior to the time formal application is made for approval of the project for which utilities are requested. The term of said agreement shall terminate at the time any project application or approval expires or if revoked for any reason. A new agreement shall also be required for any extension of project applications or approvals or when in the opinion of the Director of Community Planning & Development, a substantial change or addition is made to the project. Following execution, such agreement shall be recorded by the city clerk in the records of the Thurston County Auditor. (Ord. 1294 §1, 2007).
