§ 150.036 SURFACE AND SUBSURFACE WATER DRAINAGE.
   (A)   It shall be unlawful for the owner, agent or other person in control or possession of any premises jointly or severally to permit any existing or new eave trough, footing drain, drain downspout, piping, sump pump or other device or appliance for collecting and discharging surface water, rainwater or any other source of surface runoff water, ground water or subsurface water, whether permanent or temporary, above or below grade, to be designed, located or constructed over or across any street, alley, public way, or any rights of way thereof, or other public property other than by means of a village-approved storm sewer, drainage swale or other drainage system or structure. It is further the intent of this section that no such waters shall be collected and discharged on any adjoining property, and no such waters shall be collected and discharged closer than six feet from the front, side or rear lot lines of the premises; provided, however, that if there is a public sidewalk on or adjacent to the subject property, no such waters shall be collected and discharged closer than six feet from any sidewalk.
   (B)   No person shall make connection or allow the continued connection of roof downspouts, exterior foundation drains, areaway drains, or other sources of surface runoff or groundwater to a building drain which in turn is connected directly or indirectly to a public sanitary sewer.
