The owner of all houses, buildings or properties used for human occupancy, employment, recreation or other purposes, situated within the municipality and abutting any street, alley or right-of-way in which there is now located or may in the future be located a public sanitary or combined sewer of the village, is hereby required, at his or her own expense, to install suitable toilet facilities therein and to connect such facilities directly with the proper public sewer within two years after date of official notice to do so, or if hereafter erected, at the time of its construction; provided, that said public sewer is within 150 feet of the property line. In the event that any property owner shall neglect, fail or refuse, within a period of ten days after further notice has been given to him or her to do so by registered mail or by publication in a newspaper in or of general circulation in the municipality, to make such connection, the governing body shall have the power to cause the same to be done, to assess the cost thereof against the property and to collect the assessment thus made in the manner provided for collection of other special taxes and assessments.
