If the sewer tap has not been completed within l80 days after the availability of sewer service, the property owner will be charged under the provisions of this chapter for all sewer service to the property even though the sewer tap has not been completed. If the property owner has failed to have the sewer service connected within one year after the date of the availability of the sewer service, the property owner shall be cited for his or her failure to comply with this chapter, and each successive day of his or her failure to have the sewer service tapped into the available city sewer shall constitute a separate offense.
