Lexington-Fayette Urban County Government Zoning Code
Sec. 16-38. - Connection with public sanitary sewer; when required.
(a)   The owner of each house, building, apartment or property used for human occupancy, employment, recreation or other purposes, situated within the urban county and abutting on any street, alley, right-of-way or sanitary sewer easement in which there is now located or may in the future be located a public sanitary sewer of the urban county government is required, at his own expense, to install suitable toilet facilities therein and to connect such facilities directly with the proper public sanitary sewer in accordance with the provisions of this chapter, either:
(1)   Within five (5) years of the passage of any ordinance which expanded the full urban service district or created a partial urban service district providing sanitary sewer services which ordinance included such property; such ordinance shall have an effective date prior to July 1, 1982; or
(2)   Within five (5) years of the date by which the division of sanitary sewers accepts maintenance responsibility of a sewer line which benefits the particular property in question;
whichever is later. The provisions of this subsection are subject to determination by the urban county department of health of a health hazard which constitutes a public nuisance, in which case connection to a public sanitary sewer may be directed by the department of health at any time such connection is technically feasible.
(b)   In cases of businesses employing coin-operated machines which are used in vending goods or services and which operate without any resident attendant, or an attendant who is not present during the full period of the operation of said business, and in cases of businesses occupying only one (1) room of a building, the necessity for and the adequacy of toilet facilities shall be determined by the urban county health officer. In cases of operation of unattended businesses in which it is deemed that the installation of toilet facilities constitutes a danger to the safety of the patrons and public, or which afford an opportunity for concealment of wrong-doers and which may serve as breeding places for crime, the necessity for the installation of toilet facilities shall be determined by agreement between the chief of police and urban county health officer. If the chief of police and the health officer determine that the interest of the public safety outweighs the desirability of toilet facilities, a certificate shall be issued by the health officer to the owner of such business permitting him to operate without toilet facilities.
