(A) All plumbing affecting the sanitary condition of any building or structure shall be connected to a public sewer, if such sewer is located within a public street, alley or right-of-way on which the property containing the building or structure abuts and if such sewer is within 200 feet of such property.
(B) Except as is provided in divisions (C) and (D) of this section, it is unlawful for any person, firm or corporation to erect, construct or maintain any cesspool, septic tank or other individual sewage disposal system upon any property within the above distance from the public sewer.
(C) Upon any property where an individual disposal system has been maintained prior to the construction of such public sewer, the owner or occupant thereof shall not be required to connect with the public sewer so long as the cesspool or septic tank is sufficient and adequate as determined by the Building Official in accordance with proper sanitation practices.
(D) The requirements of divisions (A) and (B) of this section shall not be construed to prevent an applicant attempting, pursuant to Chapter 18.04, to pre-qualify a residential improvement to be located as set forth in division (A) of this section from doing the following:
(1) Installing sewer facilities for eventual connection to the public sewer system when the Director requires such connection; and
(2) Installing an acceptable individual sewage disposal system for temporary use until the Director requires connection to the public sewer system. The Director shall require connection to the public sewer system as soon as practicable after adequate capacity to treat such sewage becomes available and all temporary use of individual disposal systems permitted under this subsection.
