(a) All persons making connections, whether at the main sewer or at the end of the lateral, with a public sewer of the City are required before tapping such sewer to procure a license from the City Engineer. The fee for such license shall be one hundred twenty-five dollars ($125.00) for every year thereof. All licenses are to run for a period ending December 31, in the year in which they are issued, unless renewed. Each applicant for a license must file with the City Engineer a surety bond in the sum of ten thousand dollars ($10,000) guaranteeing that the work he may do will comply in all respects to the provisions of this chapter or other ordinances which may be in force regarding sewer tapping in the City, and proof of five hundred thousand dollars ($500,000) liability, and that the City shall be saved harmless from any damage claims by reason or work done by the applicant. Only such persons shall be given a license to make connections with the City sewer systems as shall have furnished proof of their experience which may qualify them to do such work. (Ord. 65-2012. Passed 6-4-12.)
(b) Any sewer builder, plumber, gas fitter, sewer tapper or other person acting in such capacity who fails to comply with each and every provision of this chapter, or other ordinances regulating the making of connections to the City sewer system shall have his license revoked at the direction of the City Engineer.
