Before a connection permit to the sanitary sewer main is issued to a licensed sewer builder or plumber for the owner of property for which a sanitary sewer connection is desired, the City Engineer shall determine a sanitary sewer main fee, in accordance with the following:
(a) If the property for which a sanitary connection is desired, has been previously assessed for a sanitary sewer main by a political subdivision or the sewer main has been installed by a developer at his expense, there shall be no charge for the sanitary sewer main fee. However, the service charge and inspection fee shall be in effect as described in Section 923.015
.
(b) If the owner of property for which a sanitary sewer connection is desired has not previously contributed toward an existing sewer main, then the fee shall be twenty-four dollars ($24.00) per foot front for the sanitary sewer main fee. This fee contributes to the cost of constructing the sanitary sewer main. Also to be included are the service charge and inspection fees, as described in Section 923.015
.
(c) If a sanitary sewer main is extended by an individual, at his expense under a special construction permit issued by the City Engineer, there shall be no fee for the special permit; however, the owner shall pay inspection charges for the construction of the sanitary sewer main extension and the standard service charges and inspection fees for each connection thereto, as described in Section 923.015
.
(d) All sanitary sewer main fees, as described herein, are collected to defray the cost of construction of such sanitary sewer main where there was no contribution by the abutting affected property’s at the time of construction. These main fees are to be deposited to the Sewerage Revenue Fund. All inspection fees are to be deposited to the General Fund.
