(A) Application for sewer connection shall be made in writing in the form prescribed by officials of the city. If the application is approved and the fees paid as provided, the city shall issue a sewer connection permit, specifying the location where the connection shall be made. The connection fees are valid for 1 year from the date of the sewer connection permit. If the sewer connection is not made within 1 year, or any further connections allowed by the Council, then the applicant shall be required to make a new application and pay a new connection fee at the time of re-application. No credit shall be given to the applicant on his or her account from the first connection fee.
(B) Unless otherwise requested, the applicant shall be deemed the user of the sewer and shall be legally liable for all charges therefore. In the event someone other than the applicant wishes to assume the legal obligation for the sewer charges, the city must receive a written request signed by both the applicant and the person desiring to be legally liable for the bill. However, such a request will act as a guarantor of the bill and shall not relieve the actual user from liability for charges incurred by that user.
