The owner of any house, building, structure, premises, or property used for human occupancy, employment, recreation or other purposes, situated within the county and/or township, and abutting on any street, alley or right-of-way, in which there is located or may in the future be located, a public sanitary sewer or public combined sewer within 200 feet from a building or structure, is hereby required, at the owner’s expense, to install suitable toilet facilities therein, and to connect such facilities directly with the proper public sewer, in accordance with the provisions of this chapter, when given official notice to do so, provided that such connection shall be required to be made within 12 months. The connection shall be made, in the case of future improvement of the premises, so as to require connection to a public sewer, as above provided, prior to occupancy or use of the building or structure. No new residential development, such as but not limited, to a plat or site condominium site plan, shall hereafter be approved unless the developer or subdivider shall agree to install in such residential development, at his or her own expense, an approved system of lateral sewers and to connect the same to a public sewer.
