§ 51.004 REQUIREMENTS FOR CONNECTING TO PUBLIC SEWERS.
   (A)   No owner of occupant of any real property shall tap or drain either directly or indirectly into any public sewer until a sewer tap permit has been obtained and until he or she has satisfied his or her obligation to pay all assessments, reimbursements or pro rata shares of sewer extension costs laid against that property for public sewers installed to serve it. A tap permit given in error or sewerage service charges billed to a property in error shall not operate to nullify any such obligation that has been duly recorded.
   (B)   The Town Council shall have the authority to require an owner of real property to disconnect from a building sewer which drains into a sanitary sewer, any downspout, yard drain or other drain, which carries the runoff of natural precipitation. Property owners shall have 30 days after notice to comply with any such tap permit which will cause excess flow, BOD and/or suspended solid loading of the wastewater treatment plant, force mains, lift stations or sewers.
   (C)   No connection to any town sewer line shall occur prior to an open trench inspection.
