Ohio Code § 4905.39

§ 4905.39.

The legislative authority of any municipal corporation may, upon the filing of an

application by any person, firm, or corporation, require of any public utility, by

ordinance or otherwise, such additions or extensions to its distributing plant within

such municipal corporation as the legislative authority deems reasonable and necessary

in the interest of the public, and, subject to section 4951.06 of the Revised Code , such municipal corporation may designate the location and nature of all such additions

and extensions, the time within which they must be completed, and all conditions under

which they must be constructed and operated.  Such requirements and orders of the legislative authority shall be subject to review

by the public utilities commission, as provided in sections 4909.34 and 4909.39 of the Revised Code .  The legislative authority and commission, in determining the practicability of such

additions and extensions, shall take into consideration the supply of the product

furnished by such public utility available, the returns upon the cost and expense

of constructing such extensions, and the amount of revenue to be derived from such

extensions, as well as the earning power of the public utility as a whole.
