(A) Except as otherwise allowed in this chapter, the owner of any property required to be connected with the city water line or with the city sewer system shall connect the property within 90 days after the service first becomes available to the property, within 90 days of the enactment of this code if the requirement did not previously apply but service is presently available, and immediately if the requirement previously applied and service is available. The owner shall discontinue at that time the use of any other water supply or means of sewage disposal.
(B) Whenever service for which a connection required under this chapter becomes available or is about to become available to a property, the Clerk/Treasurer may notify the owner of the connection requirement. If that notice has not been given and the owner failed to make the required connection within the time allowed for making connection, the Clerk/Treasurer shall give notice that connection must be made within a specified time of the mailing or delivery of the notice, and that if not done, connection will be made by the city at the expense of the owner.
