At the time an assessment district is formed for the purpose of constructing and installing sewer mains, the council may, in its resolution of intention initiating such assessment district proceedings, also authorize the construction and installation of any sewer laterals which may be necessary to connect a building or structure on property located within the boundaries of the assessment district to the city's sewer mains, provided that the owner of such property has filed a written request for the construction and installation of such sewer laterals within the time set forth in such resolution. When so authorized, the council shall cause the construction and installation of a sewer lateral on any property within the assessment district whose owner has requested same in a similar manner as that provided for the construction and installation of the sewer mains and shall also cause an assessment lien to be levied against such property in an amount equal to the cost of constructing and installing such sewer lateral, in a similar manner as that provided for the assessment of the benefits to be derived from such property from the construction and installation of the sewer mains.
