A. Residential or Nonresidential Premises Initially Connecting to the Sewer System. Where residential or nonresidential premises initially connecting to the sewer system do not have an existing sewer main located in a street or easement adjacent to the lot or parcel on which such premises are located, the owner of the premises shall install a sewer main extension from a point within a street or easement adjacent to such lot or parcel which is approved by the director to a point on the existing sewer main also as approved by the director. In addition, where such premises are being initially connected to the sewer system incident to the construction or alteration of a building or other structure on the premises which requires the issuance of a building permit pursuant to the provisions of this code, the owner of the premises shall install a sewer main extension throughout the length of any street improvements required to be made in the public rights-of-way adjoining the premises as a condition of the issuance of such building permit.
All such sewer main extensions shall be installed in accordance with the design criteria and improvement standards for sanitary sewer mains now or hereafter adopted by or pursuant to this code, and shall be located within a public street or public easement except where the director determines that the location of the sewer main within a public street or public easement is impracticable and except for that part of a sewer main extension located within the boundaries of a subdivision in which all or substantially all of the streets are privately owned and maintained. Where a sewer main extension is installed incident to the construction or alteration of a building or structure or a change in use of premises which requires a certificate of occupancy pursuant to the provisions of this code, the sewer main extension shall be completed prior to the issuance of such certificate of occupancy.

In addition, where a tentative subdivision map has been approved by the city for residential or nonresidential premises which do not have an existing sewer main in a street or easement adjacent to the boundaries of the subdivision, the owner of such premises shall install a sewer main extension from a point within a street or easement adjacent to the subdivision boundaries which is approved by the director to a point on an existing sewer main also as approved by the director. Moreover, where, as a condition of approval of a tentative map for residential or nonresidential premises, street improvements are required to be made in the public rights-of-way adjoining such premises, the owner of the premises shall, at the owner's sole cost and expense, also install a sewer main extension throughout the length of any such street improvements.
All such sewer main extensions shall be installed in accordance with the design criteria and improvement standards for sanitary sewer mains now or hereafter adopted by or pursuant to this code, shall be located within a public street or public easement except where the director determines that the location of the sewer main in a public street or public easement is impracticable and except for that part of the sewer main extension located within the boundaries of a subdivision in which all or substantially all of the streets are privately owned and maintained, and shall be completed prior to the filing of a final map for the subdivision or in the manner and within the time provided for in a subdivision improvement agreement executed pursuant to the provisions of this code at the time of filing a final map for the subdivision.
