8-2-2: SEWER EXTENSION REQUIREMENTS:

8-2-2-1: APPLICABILITY:

The extension of a sanitary sewer by any entity that will serve or in the future may serve more than one building and that will connect either directly or indirectly to the POTW of the village shall be made only after an application for a village permit has been made in writing on forms prescribed and furnished by the village and an extension permit is issued by the village. (Ord. 20-08-25, 8-10-2020)

8-2-2-2: REQUIREMENTS:

   A.   Application: Persons desiring such extension of the sewer system shall file with the village engineer (VE) two (2) copies of the following documents:

      2.   IEPA permit application with such supporting documents required by the IEPA, completely filled out and ready for village signature.

      3.   Detailed estimate of the cost of the extension.

      The person or persons extending the sewer shall pay all costs of plan review by the village engineer to the village prior to the village or duly authorized agent signing the IEPA permit application.

   B.   Issuance: The village engineer will issue an extension permit in accordance with the following:

      1.   It has been demonstrated that the downstream POTW, including village sewers and pump stations, have sufficient reserve capacity to adequately and efficiently handle the additional anticipated waste load.

      2.   A permit has been issued by the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency. The village permit shall expire on the expiration date of the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency permit. Those portions of the work, for which a village permit has been issued and the work has been approved by the village shall be completed within the permit time. Future construction on the project for which the original permit was issued shall require a new permit that will be issued in compliance with the ordinances of the village at the time of the application for the new permit. All fees and charges assessed under the conditions of the village permit are forfeited by the applicant/owner upon the expiration of the permit.

      3.   The village has received an agreement and bond executed by the permittee wherein he agrees to make and install the improvements in accordance with plans and specifications identifying a completion date not more than six (6) months after the date of the agreement unless the village board determines, on the basis of the recommendation of the village engineer, that a longer time is necessary.

      The guarantee for completion of the improvements by the permittee shall be in the principal amount of one hundred percent (100%) of the estimated cost as approved by the village engineer; and secured by either:

         a.   An escrow account at a federally insured bank or savings and loan association subject to draw by the village administrator or designee to complete the improvements if it is not completed within the prescribed time limit.

         b.   A clean, non-declining, irrevocable letter of credit issued by a federally insured bank or savings and loan association. The letter shall be approved by the village treasurer and provide that funds may be drawn only by the village administrator or treasurer.

      The bond shall remain in effect for a period of one year after acceptance of the work by the village engineer as a guarantee of good faith of the permittee to correct defects. At the discretion of the village board, the bond may be reduced during the maintenance period.

      4.   The village engineer has received copies of all permits, insurance and bonds required for street openings or stream crossings and any other permits required by an agency having jurisdiction.

      5.   The village engineer has received certificates of insurance protecting the village from any liability or damage whatsoever from injury, including death, to any person or property. The amount of the insurance shall be as established by the village board.

      6.   The village engineer has received payment for the cost of the permit and the estimated cost of inspection. The cost of inspection shall include resident supervision if deemed necessary by the village engineer. The estimated cost of inspection, approved by the village engineer, shall be deposited with the village treasurer prior to the start of work and additional funds added during the work if required. The permittee, however, shall pay only the actual costs of such services based on standard engineering fees. At the completion of the work any unused portion of the amount deposited shall be returned. No interest shall be paid on deposited funds.
