   1.   The owners of all houses, buildings or property used for human occupancy, employment, recreation or other purpose, situated within the corporate limits of the city and abutting on any street or alley or right-of-way in which there is located a public sanitary sewer of the city, are hereby required, at their own expense, to install suitable toilet facilities therein, and to have such facilities connected directly with the proper public sewer within 120 days after the date of official municipal notice to do so; provided that such public sewer is within 300 feet of the property line.
   2.   Said notice (above) shall be served by any designated agent of the city by delivering a true and correct copy to the property owner, or leaving the same at said person’s usual place of residence with a member of the family over the age of 15 years, or if such owner cannot be found, by posting a copy of such notice at the front entrance of the building involved.
   3.   Any person who shall fail, neglect or refuse to comply with the terms of this section after having been notified so to do, as provided herein, shall be guilty of an offense. In the event of a continuous violation of this section by any property owner, the city may discontinue the furnishing of water to such property owner, until such time as a proper sewer connection has been made.
