Title 18 : Water and Sewers
Chapter 2 : Wastewater Collection And Treatment Regulations
18-203 : Use of public sewers required.
- It shall be unlawful for any person to place, deposit, or permit to be deposited in any unsanitary manner on public or private property within the boundaries of the town, or in any area under the jurisdiction of the town, any human or animal excrement, garbage, or other objectionable waste if public sewer is available.
- It shall be unlawful to discharge to any natural outlet within the boundaries of the town or in any area under the jurisdiction of the town any sewage or other polluted waters, except where suitable treatment has been provided in accordance with subsequent provisions of this chapter.
- Except as hereinafter provided, it shall be unlawful to construct or maintain any privy, privy vault, septic tank, cesspool, or other facility intended or used for the disposal of sewage if public sewer is available.
- The owner of all houses, buildings, or properties used for human occupancy, employment, recreation, or other purposes, situated within the town and abutting on any street, alley, or right-of-way in which there is now located or may in the future be located a public sanitary or combined sewer of the town, is hereby required at his expense to install suitable toilet facilities therein, and to connect such facilities directly with the proper public sewer in accordance with the provisions of this policy, within ninety (90) days after date of official notice to do so, provided that said public sewer is within one hundred (100) feet (30.5 meters) of the property line.
- However, in the event the property owner fails to connect to the available sanitary sewer within the ninety (90) days prescribed by subsection (4) above, he shall pay the current sewer rates as calculated by his monthly metered water consumption, or the current flat sewer rate for unmetered water as referred to in § 18-121(3)(b). However, neither this section nor the property owner's payment of the sewer availability charge shall be construed as a limitation on the right of the town under this chapter to require the property the general penalty provision of this municipal code of ordinances to fail or refuse to pay the sewer availability charge. The town may also discontinue or refuse water service as set out in § 18-119 in the event the consumer fails to comply with these regulations. (1978 Code, § 13-203)
