   Where a public sanitary sewer main is reasonably accessible, in the judgment of the Planning Commission, the subdivision shall be provided with a complete sanitary sewer system connected with such sewer main, including a lateral connection for each lot. Where a public sanitary main is not reasonably accessible, in the opinion of the Planning Commission, proper provisions shall be made for the disposal of sanitary wastes by one or the other of the following methods, as is appropriate in the judgment of the Planning Commission:

   (a)   Unless specifically approved by the Planning Commission, all subdivisions shall be provided with a complete sewage system, including a lateral connection for each lot, and a community sewage treatment plant of a type meeting the approval of the officials having jurisdiction over the same.

   (b)   Where a subdivision provides a complete sewage system or a common effluent sewer line, the following note shall be entered on the Final Plat: “The tile that is laid for the purpose of serving as an effluent line for an individual or community sewage treatment systems is a private sewer line and the responsibility of maintenance shall rest with the abutting property owners using said line.” Alternatively, the right of the City of Hamilton to charge the actual cost of operating and maintaining such common effluent sewer line and/or treatment plant shall be entered on the Final Plat and incorporated into each deed.

   (c)   In the event the Planning Commission approves the use of home sewage treatment systems in lieu of a complete sewage system for a particular subdivision, private restrictions shall be filed with the Final Plat and incorporated into each deed calling for the installation of an individual sewage disposal system on each lot meeting fully the requirements of the officials having jurisdiction over the same.
