  1. Village Law
  2. Article 11. Water

§ 11-1120 Supplying water outside of corporate limits. The board of

water commissioners may sell to a corporation, individual or water

district outside the village the right to make connections with the

mains or reservoirs of such village for the purpose of drawing water

therefrom and fix the prices and conditions therefor. The board of water

commissioners of any village may contract with the state of New York or

with the state authority having control and supervision of any state

institution to furnish water to such state or state institution either

within or without the corporate limits of said village upon such

conditions and conferring such powers in the state or such state

authority and for such compensation as said board of water commissioners

and the state of New York or such state authority may agree. If the

mains are or shall be laid in or through another municipal corporation

not having a public system of water works, the board of water

commissioners may itself lay additional pipes for the purpose of

distributing water from such mains, and shall have the same rights in

the streets or highways of such other municipal corporation as if the

principal system were established therein. The board shall not sell nor

permit the use of water under this section if thereby the supply for the

village or its inhabitants will be insufficient.
