17.050 Application and Permits.

(1) No plumbing shall be installed in the City of Manitowoc, Manitowoc County, Wisconsin, without first filing an application and receiving a permit. This shall also apply to any building located outside of the limits of the City of Manitowoc before such building may be connected to the sewer or water system of the City of Manitowoc, Wisconsin. Each application must be approved by the local Plumbing Inspector before a permit to install plumbing may be issued. Licensed master plumbers only may receive such permits, with the exception that a permit may be issued to a property owner to install plumbing in a single-family residence which is owned and occupied by such owner, as his home.

(2) A permit shall be applied for and received before excavating in any street, alley or other public way to repair, alter or install plumbing. No charge shall be made for such permit, but the applicant shall furnish a bond as provided for in MMC 17.080(5).
