Upon the sale of any land within the Village upon which an existing building is located, no transfer of such real estate shall be effective unless and until a zoning certificate is issued to the prospective new owner of the real estate. No such zoning certificate shall be issued to the new owner unless and until the seller of the property shall have produced evidence, satisfactory to the Director of Utilities and Public Service, that the sewer piping on such property from building to right of way is in good condition, properly connected and reasonably free from infiltration. If the Village is requested to perform and performs tests necessary in order to provide the evidence required by this section, there shall be a fee of thirty dollars ($30.00) per hour charged for performance of such tests. No person, agent, firm or corporation shall sell any interest in any land containing an existing building or structure without furnishing the buyer, prior to the sale, proof that the sewer piping on the property from building or structure to right of way is in good condition, properly connected and reasonably free from infiltration, and, in the event there is an escrow established to provide for the delivery of instruments, documents and funds in connection with the sale, the seller shall deposit in escrow, prior to delivery of possession or transfer of title, the written statement from the buyer acknowledging receipt of a statement from the Director of Utilities and Public Services confirming that the sewer piping on the property from the building to the right of way is in good condition, properly connected and reasonably free from infiltration.
