No property owner, builder or developer shall
be issued a building permit for a new dwelling or structure requiring

conditions leading to the moratorium are corrected. Such correction
may be by:

All requirements, directives and orders calling
for mandatory use of the sewers within the Service Area of the POTW
for the proper discharge of sewage and other wastes, including industrial
wastes, shall be established and given by the Ontario Town Board,
NYSDEC, USEPA and/or other such state or federal agencies which have
enforcement powers.
