(A) When a permit for a sewer service line (side sewer) has been granted, the sewer tap at the sewer main and the sewer service line from the sewer main to a point ten feet beyond the street or alley right-of-way line or sewer easement line shall be installed by the city at the expense of the person or firm desiring sewer service, but thereafter the sewer service line within the public right-of-way or easement shall be maintained by the city at its expense and kept within and under its exclusive control and jurisdiction.
(B) (1) All sewer service lines (side sewers) within any public rights-of-way or easements shall be constructed by the city: except that sewer service lines in any new subdivisions may be installed as part of the construction for the new sewer collection system within said subdivisions and provided, further, that said service lines are constructed, inspected, tested, and certified as being in conformance with the city’s standard drawings and the state’s standard specifications governing the construction of sewer service lines.
(2) Sewer service lines may also be installed by contract in conjunction with city-sponsored projects or when, in the opinion of the city, it is in the city’s best interest to have or allow said sewer service lines to be installed by other than city personnel.
