So, based on your availability statement why can't people in the city build the components needed for a wind powered, mechanically coupled, rod activated suction pump?  Then you don't even need to import the magnets.  A neighbor of mine has had a rod type pump working at 300 feet for as long as I can remember, over half a century.  Now, we're coming to the crux of the issue.  What can the locals do themselves.  Considering the level of the technology involved and your statements, I see no reason why they couldn't build the complete pump of the type I described.
