Such rates and charges shall be prepared, billed and collected by the town in the manner provided by law and ordinance. (See I.C. 36-9-23-1 et seq.)
(A) The rates and charges may be billed to the tenant or tenants occupying the properties served, unless otherwise requested in writing by the owner, but such billing shall in no way relieve the owner from the liability, in the event payment is not made as herein required. The owners of properties served, which are occupied by a tenant or tenants, shall have the right to examine the collection records of the town for the purpose of determining whether bills have been paid by such tenant or tenants, provided that such examination shall be made at the office at which said records are kept and during the hours that such office is open for business.
(B) The connection fee provided herein and the method for the payment of said connection fee shall be also applicable to those lots which in the future connect into the town sewage line which extends from the manhole at the northeast corner of lot numbered five in said Beyers First Addition to the town, and then southward to the manhole near the northeast corner of lot numbered eight in said Beyers First Addition to the town, provided, however, that prior to connecting to said line, if a lot connecting into said line is more than 150 feet in width, such lot owner shall not be permitted to connect into the line until the Town Council have first had opportunity to study the costs of the line with respect to such larger lot and determine the fair proportionate share of expense which is applicable to said lot, which share may be cause for a larger connection fee.
