If the owner of any property, after 90 days’ notice from the township or the authority to make connection of such property with the public sewage system shall fail to make such connection, the township or the authority may make the connection and collect the costs thereof in the manner provided by law. In such case, the township or the authority, as the case may be, shall forthwith, upon completion of the work, send an itemized bill of the cost of construction of such connection to the owner of improved property to which connection has been so made, which bill shall be payable forthwith.
In case of neglect or refusal by the owner of such improved property to pay said bill, the township or the authority, as the case may be, shall file municipal liens for said construction within six months of the date of completion of the construction of said connection, the same to be subject in all respects to the general law provided for filing and recovering of municipal liens.
