§ 55.073 ASSESSMENTS FOR REAL ESTATE NOT CONNECTED TO POTW.

   All real estate lying adjacent to or near a sanitary sewer which is or becomes a part of the sewer system is subject to an area assessment in addition to the tap fee required by §§ 55.035 through 55.053 unless it can be demonstrated to the satisfaction of the city that:

   (A)   The real estate was not connected to a sanitary sewer on or before December 31, 1973; or

   (B)   The cost of installing the adjacent sewer was borne by the owner of the real estate at the time the sewer was constructed or by some later owner; or

   (C)   The property is located in a development where the sewer was installed by the developer and included in the sale price of the property. In such cases, where a contract exists that requires payment of an additional tap fee as a condition of connection, the larger of either the additional tap fee or the area assessment shall be collected.
