(A) If it becomes necessary to discharge clear water into the sanitary sewer from a sump pump or other water collection system during periods of freezing weather, a permit must be obtained from the city.
(B) The permit must be approved by the City Council and will allow discharge of clear water into the sanitary sewer from November 1 to April 1 of each year.
(C) This permit period may be altered or terminated if weather conditions warrant. Violations of the conditions of this permit will make the holder of this permit subject to penalties as outlined in § 51.42 below.
(D) A fee set by the City Council for a sump pump in the sanitary sewer will be placed on any property's utility bill. For 2012 the fee will be $4.00 per month from November through March and $269.40 from April through October. Such charge will be eliminated upon providing proof of disconnection, either by calling the City of Mapleton for an inspection or by affidavit from a licensed plumber that disconnection has been completed.
