First contact you city water department and find out where they want you to hook in. Once you know that a ditch to the main will be needed, the main and your water line will have to be below the frost line, this depth varies depending on local climate and also local building codes.
If there is already a valve at the main where the city is having you hook up you'll need to run your pipe to it, if not you'll need to have one installed. They have a special valve that hooks onto the pipe and equipment that can drill through the valve while the main is under pressure. You will likely also need to install a shut off valve that can be accessed from "street level" and most communities will require a water meter.
Before the water can be turned on most communities will require an inspection of both the water and sewer Plumbing in the building.
Because local codes and rules vary greatly hooking to the main is probably best left to professionals.
