Except as otherwise provided in this section,
each improved property shall be connected separately and independently
with a sewer through a building sewer. Grouping of more than one improved
property on one building sewer shall not be permitted except under
special circumstances and for good sanitary reasons or other good
cause shown, and then only after special permission of this township
and the Authority, in writing, shall have been secured.
All costs and expenses of construction of a
building sewer and all costs and expenses of connection of a building
sewer to a sewer shall be borne by the owner of the improved property
to be connected; and such owner shall indemnify and save harmless
this township and the Authority from all loss or damage that may be
occasioned, directly or indirectly, as a result of construction of
a building sewer or of connection of a building sewer to a sewer.
If the owner of any improved property located in this township and accessible to and whose principal building is within 150 feet of the sewer system, after 60 days' notice from this township in accordance with §
117-2, shall fail to connect such improved property as required, this township may make such connection and may collect from such owner the costs and expenses thereof. In such case, this township shall forthwith upon completion of the work send an itemized bill of the cost of the construction of such connection to the owner of the improved property to which connection has been so made, which bill shall be payable forthwith. In case of neglect or refusal by the owner of such improved property to pay said bill, this township shall file a municipal lien for said construction within six months of the date of the completion of the construction of said connection, the same to be subject in all respects to the general law provided for the filing and recovery of municipal liens.
