913.05 CITY'S EXPENSES TO BE REIMBURSED.

   Where public sewers or water mains have been constructed and the cost thereof has been wholly or partially paid out of funds of the City or financed through the issuance of bonds, and the owner of any property abutting upon such sewers or water mains makes application to tap such sewers or water mains, no permit shall be issued to such abutting property owner to make such connection or connections, nor shall such abutting property owner make such connection or connections unless he has first paid into the City Treasury, or given security for such payment satisfactory to the fiscal officer of the City, that portion of the cost of such sewers or water mains, for which a connection or connections are desired to be made, which was paid by the City or was formerly charged in the form of an assessment, but which assessment the City has been unable to collect due to defects in procedure or the failure to obtain an assessment lien for such cost. However, where the cost of such sewers or water mains to which connections are desired to be made has been assessed against such abutting property and a valid assessment lien imposed thereon for such cost, or where, in the case of an invalid assessment, reassessment for such cost may be levied under and by authority of Ohio R.C. 727.39, such permit shall be issued, provided the same conforms with the other regulations of the City. (Ord. 1963-180. Passed 12-2-63.)

913.06 PLUGS.

   Every person, firm or corporation who has secured a building permit shall, upon the completion of the installation of a sanitary sewer house connection:

   (a)    Provide a plug of proper size to completely seal the end of the pipe so installed, which plug shall be properly cemented in place at the foundation end of such house connection.

   (b)   Not remove such plug from the foundation end of a sanitary sewer house connection, except by written permission of the Building Commissioner, from the time of installation of such house connection until the time at which the soil pipe is connected thereto. (1964 Code 96.06)

913.07 SECURITY DEPOSIT.

   (a)   Each sewer builder proposing to make sewer connections within the City shall deposit with the City Clerk an amount equal to fifty dollars ($50. 00) for each permit issued and outstanding. A permit shall be deemed to be outstanding within the meaning of this section until the Building Commissioner certifies that the work authorized under such permits has been completed in conformity with the rules and regulations governing such work. Upon such certification of completion being entered upon the records, the deposit represented by such permit shall be refunded to such sewer builder. If the work authorized by such permit is not completed in accordance with the rules and regulations therefor, the Building Commissioner may so notify the sewer builder and if the work is not thereafter completed within the time required by the Building Commissioner, he may order the work done, and the cost and expense thereof shall be deducted from the aggregate amount held on deposit for such sewer building. The failure on the part of any sewer builder to complete the work authorized under any given permit in accordance with the rules and regulations for such work shall authorize the Building Commissioner to revoke any or all permits issued to such sewer builder and then outstanding and shall also authorize the Building Commissioner to refuse to issue any further permits to such sewer builder unless Council shall, by resolution, direct the issuance of further permits.

   (b)   In lieu of the cash guarantee herein required, the sewer builder may deposit with the City a surety bond in double the amount of the cash deposit herein required. Such surety bond shall be conditioned upon the faithful performance of the provisions of this chapter, shall conform to all legal requirements and may be so written as to be applicable to any work performed or about to be performed in the City for which plumbing or sewer building permits have been requested by such plumber or sewer builder. (1964 Code §96.07)

   (b)   Each grease trap and/or grease interceptor shall be cleaned not less than:

      (2)    Once every three months for forty seats or under;

      (3)    A certificate of cleaning shall be furnished to the Director of Public Works as evidence of such cleaning within the specified times hereinbefore set forth;

      (4)    If the Director of Public Works finds, upon inspection, that more frequent clearings are required, he shall give written notice of such fact to the establishment. (Ord. 1970-72. Passed 5-18-70.)
