One hundred percent of the cost of future installations of water mains and accessories shall be borne by the property owners directly benefiting from such installations.
The Board of Trustees reserves the right to elect the method of payment for such installations and accessories by such benefiting property owners under one of the two following alternative methods:
A. 
The benefiting property owners shall pay for the entire cost of such installations prior to the commencement of the work to be done.
B. 
The installations may be financed through bond issues of the Village with repayment to be made to the Village through separate assessment to cover the total cost of the installations plus interest over the bond amortization period, which shall not be longer than the period of probable usefulness as defined in the Local Finance Law, plus the cost of any and all expenses incurred by the Village in connection with the bond issue.
All installations shall be made according to Village specifications and under the supervision of the Village Engineer.
In the event of installations on cross streets where a corner lot is involved, the owner shall pay on a footage basis for the original installation, and, if a second installation is made on the second street, such owner shall not be charged up to the first 150 feet of the second installation.
The entire cost of the installations shall be apportioned among the benefiting property owners by taking into consideration the number of feet frontage of property serviced by said water lines and the assessed valuation of the properties fronting said streets wherein said lines are to be installed, each to be considered equally and to be charged with 1/2 of the total amount necessary and to be assessed accordingly and in said proportion among the property owners benefiting from said installations.
In the case of installations in any street located partly within and partly without the Village, the entire cost shall be borne by the property located within the Village.
