(A) Installation by city. When approval and inspection of a sewer service line (side sewer) has been granted, the sewer tap at the sewer main and the sewer service line from the sewer main to the property line shall be installed by the city at the expense of the person or business desiring sewer service, but thereafter the sewer service line within the public right-of-way or easement shall be maintained by the Sewer Department at its expense and kept within and under its exclusive control and jurisdiction.
(B) Installation by other than city personnel. All sewer service lines (side sewers) within any public right-of-way or easements shall be constructed by the city; except that sewer service lines in any new subdivisions may be installed as part of the construction of the new sewer collection system within this subdivision; and provided, further, that these service lines are constructed, inspected, tested and certified as being in conformance with the city standard drawings and standard specifications governing the construction of sewer service lines. Sewer service lines may also be installed by contract in conjunction with city sponsored projects or when, in the opinion of the wastewater operator, it is in the city’s best interest to have or allow the sewer service lines to be installed by other than city personnel.
