§ 53.20 PERMIT REQUIRED.
   (A)   It shall be unlawful for any unauthorized person to uncover, make any connections with or opening into, use, alter, or disturb any public sewer or appurtenance thereof without first obtaining a written permit therefor from the Superintendent of Public Works.
   (B)   There shall be two separate classes of building sewer permits: for residential or commercial service, and for service to establishments producing industrial wastes. In either case, the owner or the owner's agent shall make application on a special form furnished by the village. The permit application shall be supplemented by any plans, specifications, or other information considered pertinent in the judgment of the Superintendent. Each industry, as a condition of permit authorization, must also provide information describing its wastewater constituents, characteristics, and type of activity. A permit and inspection fee of $100 shall be paid to the village at the time the application is filed. Further, if any street must be opened to reach the public sewer, an additional fee of $10 per foot will be charged for breaking open any improved street; and a flat fee of $50 will be charged for breaking open any unimproved street.
   (C)   A building sewer permit will only be issued and a sewer connection shall only be allowed if it can be demonstrated that the downstream sewerage works, including sewers, pump stations and wastewater treatment facilities, have sufficient reserve capacity to adequately and efficiently handle the additional anticipated waste load.
