(A) When it is necessary to make a connection with the sanitary or storm sewer system of the Village, which connection requires the prior issuance of a sewerage system permit by the Metropolitan Sanitary District of Greater Chicago, the owner-permittee shall make a cash deposit of $750 with the Village, when filing the permit application with the Village for execution by its proper officers.
(B) The deposit is intended to insure payment of fees to be charged to the owner-permittee by the municipal engineer and municipal attorney serving the Village.
(C) The fees, based on customary hourly fee charges, shall compensate the municipal engineer and municipal attorney for services rendered in the examination and certification of the permit application, plans and specifications and for final examination and certification that the sewer system, as installed, is in accordance with the application, plans, specifications and the Sanitary District Sewer Permit Ordinance, as well as for services rendered in attending show-cause and violation hearings required before the Metropolitan Sanitary District of Greater Chicago.
(D) The deposit will be refunded promptly following verification to the Village that the fees have been satisfied in full.
(E) Failure of the owner-permittee to pay any statement for the services within 15 days after its mailing to the owner-permittee will be construed as authorization to the Village to pay the statements from and to the extent of the deposit.
(F) If the aggregate billings by the municipal engineer and municipal attorney to the owner- permittee shall exceed the deposit, the owner- permittee shall remain liable to the Village for payment of the difference.
