911.01 CONNECTIONS OF PREMISES NOT PREVIOUSLY ASSESSED.
   Where public sewers or water mains have been constructed and the cost thereof has been wholly or partly paid out of the 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, nor shall such abutting property owner make such connection, unless he shall have first paid to the City, or given security for such payment satisfactory to the City Auditor, that portion of the cost of such sewers or water mains which the property of such owner, for which connections are desired to be made, 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 a portion of 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, a 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.
