Whenever a house connection is obstructed, or if found to be broken or defective so that sewage escapes therefrom into surrounding soil or adjacent premises, repair or replacement may be ordered by the Village Engineer or his representative. Such repairs shall be at the expense of the owner or person in control of such property. When a part of a house connection is found to be broken or broken into, such break or leak shall be properly repaired by replacing the broken part with a corresponding new part. Patching of such break or leak is prohibited.
