It is the duty of every owner or occupant of any property within the city, having a dwelling house or business building situated thereon, which property is within 500 feet of any municipal water and sewer mains, to install sanitary facilities in such dwelling or business building and make connections thereof with such water and sewer mains. Whenever the noncompliance of the owner or occupant of such property is reported to the city, an investigation shall be made and a written report presented to the Council, and if the city finds that the lack of sanitary facilities is an unhealthful or unsanitary condition, the city shall forthwith serve written notice upon said owner or occupant requiring the installation upon premises described in said notice and connection thereof with the sewer and water mains, all of which shall be done within 30 days after the service of such written notice. Whenever any owner or occupant shall default in compliance with such written notice, the Council may, by resolution, direct that a sanitary facility be installed and connection be made with the water and sewer mains. The actual cost of such installations shall be assessed against the benefitting property.
