Main not being big enough isn’t a good reason if I offer to run another at my expense I wouldn’t think.

Even if you offer to build at your expense, they may not be willing to take over and maintain the line once finished..even if it were to pass an inspection…but still…that would be dumb on their part because the line would do nothing but give you water and make them money…no…this all seems odd, of you know the reason they dont want to work with you then..i mean thats probably your issue. Also, digging a seevice up and killing it at the no blow is not a normal thing for any utility, for them to do that..thats crazy…thats the kinda stuff you do to a repeat offender not only stealing water, but repeatedly damaging meters and curb stops…you dont pay your bill…you get locked up…you cut my lock and or damage my curbstop..you get charged material plus a tamering fee…you do this more than a couple times in a row…i dig your service up an kill it at the main an if you want service again…and you pay all your fees.. you can also expect to pay new material and impact fees just like you were getting a new meter set…all over again…but that is a very..very extreme situation in which we have tried to communicate and beg them to do right…and thats why your situation is so odd to me. You have a dilemma sir, as i said before…be as nice as you can be, that will go further with the ones you will need to talk to, to get help. It may also be cheaper in the long run to just go with the fayette utility you spoke of, im not telling you what to do..something isnt right, but i am sorry this is happening…good luck sir.
