(A) Generally.
(1) The plans for all sewer lines, sewage lift stations, sewage treatment facilities and the like, shall be designed, signed and sealed by a registered professional engineer licensed in the state.
(2) All sewer lines, lift stations, sewage treatment facilities and the like shall be designed in accordance with State Health Department requirements.
(3) Minimum sanitary sewer main size shall be eight-inch diameter. Minimum storm drain size shall be eight-inch diameter. Larger sizes shall be as required by the city’s overall sewer system master plan or as are needed to provide adequate sewage-carrying capacity for the area (and surrounding developable area) being developed and/or annexed to the city. Minimum building service line size shall be four-inch diameter.
(B) Depth. In general, sewers shall be sufficiently deep so as to receive sewage from basements and to prevent freezing. Sewer lines shall have at least three feet of cover (from the top of sewer line pipe to the ground or street surface) unless a special design is approved by the City Engineer whereby the sewer line is protected from freezing by special means or methods and the sewer is protected from heaving by the installation of crushed gravel backfill material under, around and over the pipe.
(C) Slope.
(1) All sewer mains shall be designed and constructed to provide mean velocities, when flowing full, of not less than two feet per second. All sewer service lines (side sewers) shall be designed and constructed to provide mean velocities, when flowing full, of not less than three feet per second. The following are minimum slopes which should be provided; however, slopes greater than these are desirable:
Sewer Size (inches) | Minimum Slope in Feet Per 110 Feet (2) Under special conditions, if detailed justifiable reasons are given, slopes slightly less than those required above (i.e., to provide two or three feet per second velocity when flowing full) may be permitted. Such decreased slopes will only be considered where the depth of flow will be three-tenths of the diameter or greater for the design average flow. Whenever such decreased slopes are proposed, the design engineer must furnish with his or her report his or her computations of the depths of flow in such pipes at the minimum and average rates of flow for a typical day. (3) Sewers shall be laid with uniform slopes between manholes, i.e., a manhole shall be constructed at each point where the sewer line slope or grade changes. (D) Manholes. Manholes shall be located not more than 400 feet apart on lines 15 inches in diameter or smaller. Manholes may be located up to 600 feet apart on lines larger than 15 inches in diameter. Manholes shall be installed at all locations where sewer line eight inches in diameter or larger intersect, join together or make a bend. All dead-end sewer lines shall have a manhole installed on the end thereof. (E) Sewer mainline drop through manholes. Lateral sanitary sewer lines shall not enter a manhole at an elevation appreciably higher than the sewer main line. The flowline(s) of any lateral line(s) shall be positioned within the manhole as follows. (1) The flowline of the main sewer line shall be at least five-hundredths of a foot below the flowline of any of the lateral sewer lines entering the manhole. Where the diameter of the main line and the lateral line differ by less than five-tenths of a foot, the top of the lateral line shall be positioned even with the top of the main line on its high (inlet) side. (2) Where the diameter of the main and lateral differ by five-tenths of a foot or more, the eight-tenths depth points of the two sewer line inverts shall be positioned at the same elevation. (3) Where a lateral line should enter a manhole at an elevation of less than three feet above the main sewer line, the grade or slope of the lateral shall be adjusted so that its flowline is located (in relation to that of the main line) as indicated above. (4) Individual building service lines may not enter manholes; except that not more than two individual building service lines may enter a “dead-end” manhole (a manhole on the upstream and permanent end of a sewer line); and provided further, that the individual building service lines must enter the manhole at such elevation that the top of the service line is level with the top of the sewer main line and that the poured-in-place concrete floor of the manhole brings the flowlines of the service lines into the flowline of the mainline in a smooth continuous manner. (F) Sanitary sewer lines and water lines. Sanitary sewer lines and water lines shall, wherever possible, be located on opposite sides of the street. Preferably, water lines shall be located 13 feet west or north of the street centerline and the sanitary sewer at 13 feet east or south of the street centerline. Where storm drains are needed, these shall preferably be located along the street centerline. The above-referenced locations and dimensions may be varied to accommodate unusual circumstances; however, a ten-foot (out-to-out) horizontal separation between water line facilities and sewer facilities (either sanitary or storm) and an 18-inch (out-to-out) vertical separation between said facilities shall always be maintained unless a specific variance to this requirement is obtained from the City Engineer. The applicable separation requirements of the State Health Department shall also be complied with. (G) Drawing requirements. (1) All drawings shall be on linen or Mylar, in pencil or ink and of such quality that they clearly show the dimensions, locations, sizes and the like, of all facilities represented thereon. All sewer line manholes, inlet boxes, building service lines and the like shall be clearly shown and identified by name and by station or other means of horizontal location. (2) Sewer lines shall be shown in both plane and profile unless the length of said sewer line or sewer line extension is so short that the City Engineer waives this requirement. (3) If a profile of the sewer line is not provided, it shall be located in the vertical plane by elevations on the flowline of the pipe at all manholes, inlet boxes and the like, and at other such locations and intervals as the City Engineer may require. (4) Drawings shall be drawn on a scale of one inch equals 100 inches unless the amount of detail, topography and the like necessitates their being drawn on a larger scale (i.e., one inch equals 50 feet or one inch equals 40 feet) to provide the clarity and completeness needed on the drawings. (H) Approval. The design of all sewer lines and all sewer line plans must be approved by the City Engineer.(Prior Code, § 13.08.410) (Ord. 532, passed 5-18-1993)§ 53.062 AS-BUILT DRAWINGS AND ENGINEER’S CERTIFICATION.
(A) As-built or record drawings of sewer line plans shall be prepared by a professional engineer, and the corrected original drawing(s) shall be provided to the city. (B) As-built plans shall include a certification thereon signed by the registered professional engineer in charge of the work that the as-built drawing of the sewer lines are true and correct and that he or she (the registered professional engineer) has inspected the construction of the sewer line installation and that the materials and installation of same were all done in conformance with the city, federal and state standard specifications for the construction of sanitary sewers and storm sewers.(Prior Code, § 13.08.420) (Ord. 532, passed 5-18-1993)§ 53.063 DEVELOPER OR PROPERTY OWNER’S RESPONSIBILITY.
(A) Subdivision developer’s or property owner’s responsibility for sewer lines. (1) The owner or developer of any piece of property or tract of land is responsible for the construction of the sewer line (or for the sewer line costs) along any of the property sides or frontages of the property along which a sewer line is needed for the overall completeness and continuity of the city’s sewer main system. If it is a large tract of land, the owner or developer shall also be responsible for the necessary and required system of sewer lines within the interior of the tract of land. (2) (a) The owner or developer of any piece of property shall construct all needed sewer lines (of the approved size) within and along all sides or frontages of any piece of property prior to the time any building constructed thereon is occupied or utilized unless phased construction of the sewer main system is specifically allowed or provided for in the annexation or development agreement. (b) In lieu of actually constructing said required sewer line or sewer lines, the property owner or developer may deposit adequate moneys with the city to fully cover the cost(s) of said required sewer line construction. (3) (a) The owner or developer of any property or subdivision will normally be responsible only for the cost of up to an eight-inch diameter sanitary sewer line. The additional cost of providing a sanitary sewer line of a size greater than eight inches will normally be a city responsibility. The city will reimburse the developer for the extra cost of the additional sanitary sewer line size (over the eight-inch diameter size referenced above) as set forth in the annexation or development agreement between the developer and the city; provided further, however, that if any proposed subdivision or development is of such size or magnitude that it requires or necessitates a sewer size larger than an eight-inch diameter line, or if the type of development is such as to produce a wastewater flow in excess of the capacity of an eight-inch diameter sewer line, then the owner or developer of said subdivision or development shall be responsible for the entire cost of whatever size of sewer line is needed to accommodate his or her development. (b) The additional cost of providing any extra sewer line depth required by the city (over and above that sewer line depth required to adequately serve the owner or developer’s property when assuming at least a 12-foot sewer line depth at the uppermost end of the sewer line extended through or along said property) will be a city responsibility, and the city will reimburse the owner or developer for the cost of said extra depth of sewer line as agreed upon and as set forth in the annexation or development agreement between the developer and the city. (4) (a) If the property owner or developer owns or is developing the property on only one side (as compared to both sides) of any street, alley or easement where a sewer line is located or required, he, she or they shall be responsible for only one-half of the cost of said sewer line while the property owner on the other side of said street, alley or easement shall be responsible for the other half of the cost of said sewer line construction. However, in the absence of any mutual agreement between the property owners, the city may participate with the first owner or developer to the extent of paying for one-half the cost of an eight-inch diameter sewer line across said referenced property frontage. (b) The second property owner will thereafter be responsible for reimbursing the city for his or her half of the costs of this sewer line construction at the time he or she (the second property owner or developer) begins to develop or build upon his or her property that is adjacent to the sewer line installed by the first property owner; provided further, however, that if the sewer line construction is for an area or a development that is outside of the city limits or if the length of the sewer line construction in which the city would be participating (as referred to above) exceeds 1,000 lineal feet, the city may decline to participate in the cost of said sewer line construction, except to pay for the extra cost differential between the size and depth of the sewer line required to serve the development and the actual size and depth of line that the city designates shall be installed to meet the requirements of its sewer system master plan. When this situation or set of circumstances exists, the property owner or developer who first initiates or actually begins the development of his or her property shall be responsible for “front-ending” the entire cost of the sewer line construction and for actually constructing said sewer line. (c) The second (or other) property owners shall thereafter be responsible for reimbursing the property owner for his, her or their share of the costs of the sewer line along his, her or their frontage at the time he, she or they (the other adjacent property owners or developers) begin to develop or build upon his, her or their property adjacent to the sewer line installed by the first property owner. In the absence of any agreement between the first property owner or developer covering the cost of said sewer line(s) the referenced other adjacent property owners or developers shall pay to the city the amount of $12 per lineal foot (or such other amount as the city may hereinafter establish and adopt by resolution) for the length of sewer line across his, her or their frontage. The city, in turn, will reimburse this same amount to the first party, which reimbursement shall be deemed adequate and appropriate compensation for his, her or their share of the cost of said sewer line.(Prior Code, § 13.08.430) (B) Subdivision developer’s or property owner’s responsibility for sewage lift stations. (1) (a) Sewer mains shall be kept as deep as practicable to keep sewage lift stations to the smallest number possible. (b) When a sewage lift station and its related facilities is required, it and the sewer main system directing sewage to it shall generally be designed for an entire definable area and not just to serve a single property owner or developer. (2) The cost of the sewage lift station shall be equitably divided between the developer and the city as set forth in the annexation or development agreement.(Prior Code, § 13.08.440)(Ord. 532, passed 5-18-1993)§ 53.064 BACKFLOW PREVENTION DEVICES.
(A) Device requirements. (1) Every sewer connection from the enactment of this chapter shall be equipped with a backflow prevention device, which shall be purchased, installed and maintained by the sewer user. (2) All persons presently connected to the sewer system are encouraged to install and maintained an approved backflow prevention device. (3) The backflow prevention device and installation shall be approved by the Superintendent of Public Works prior to installation. (B) Liability for damages. The city shall not be liable to any person for any damages caused directly or indirectly by sewage.(Ord. 552, passed 4-1-1997) Penalty, see § 53.999
ENFORCEMENT§ 53.075 CITATION; APPEARANCE.
(A) Whenever it is determined by any police officer or other duly authorized officer that any person or persons has violated any provisions of this chapter, the officer shall provide in quadruplicate and serve upon such person or persons a written citation containing a notice to appear in a designated court of competent jurisdiction within the city. (B) This citation shall contain the name and address of the person charged, the offense charged, the time and place when and where the offense charged occurred, and the time when the person charged shall appear in said court, and such other pertinent information as may be necessary, and such person or persons shall appear in said court within five days after such citation is issued and served. (C) The issuance of a citation shall not be the exclusive method of summoning offenders hereunder.(Prior Code, § 13.08.450) (Ord. 532, passed 5-18-1993)§ 53.076 FAILURE TO APPEAR UNLAWFUL.
It is unlawful for any person or persons to fail or neglect to appear in response to and as required by the citation regardless of the disposition of the charge upon which such citation was originally issued. Appearance in court shall be deemed complied with upon appearance by the person cited or his or her attorney.(Prior Code, § 13.08.460) (Ord. 532, passed 5-18-1993) Penalty, see § 53.999
RATES AND FEES§ 53.090 SYSTEM OF CHARGES.
All systems of charges and fees to users, within and without the city, shall assure that each recipient of wastewater collection and treatment services will pay its proportionate share of the costs of operation and maintenance (including equipment replacement) of any waste collection and treatment services provided by the city.(Prior Code, § 13.08.280) (Ord. 532, passed 5-18-1993)§ 53.091 SEWER CONNECTION FEE.
(A) Before any sewer connection permit is issued for the installation of any sewer service connection (side sewer), the person making the application therefor shall pay to the city a sewer connection fee according to the following schedule. |
Sewer Size (inches) | Minimum Slope in Feet Per 110 Feet (2) Under special conditions, if detailed justifiable reasons are given, slopes slightly less than those required above (i.e., to provide two or three feet per second velocity when flowing full) may be permitted. Such decreased slopes will only be considered where the depth of flow will be three-tenths of the diameter or greater for the design average flow.
