Sanitary sewer service shall be deemed reasonably available by the Superintendent if there is an existing sanitary sewer manhole within 500 feet of the owner’s property or, if after proper request and approval, the city agrees to extend the sanitary sewer line and install a manhole within 500 feet of the owner’s property line.
