No person shall connect with or tap any sanitary sewer in the city when the property to be served has not been assessed for lateral services. In this event, no plumber or other person shall make any connection with or tap any sewer, nor shall the city grant a connection permit until the owner of the property to be served, or the person desiring such connection first makes application for permission to tap or connect with the public sewers and complies with the conditions and requirements of the city which may include the payment of an equitable amount for lateral service. The city reserves the right to refuse to grant a permit to any person who applies for a permit to connect with the public sewers, where the property to be served has not been assessed for lateral service, or, if assessed, has not made such payment.
