The property owner shall be responsible for causing the construction of sewer lines connecting all improvements to the city’s service line extension located at or near the property line. No service pipe shall be allowed to run across lots, that is, from one lot to another, but it must be taken from the main in front of the premises or from some point adjacent thereto, unless specific permission is obtained from the City Manager. The City Manager shall have the power to extend service pipe to a building not abutting a main. All additional expenses for the extensions shall be paid by the owner of the property.
