No property owner, builder or developer shall
be issued a building permit for a new dwelling or structure requiring
sanitary facilities unless a suitable and approved method of wastewater
disposal conforming to this chapter is available. All housing construction
or building development which takes place after this chapter is enacted
shall provide for an approved system of sanitary sewers.
The owner(s) of all houses, buildings or properties
used for human occupancy, employment, recreation or other purposes,
situated within the Village of Montour Falls and abutting on any street,
alley or right-of-way in which there is now located or may, in the
future, be located a public sewer, is hereby required, at the owner's
expense, to install suitable sanitary facilities therein and to connect
such facilities directly with the proper public sewer in accordance
with the provisions of this chapter within 90 days after official
notice to do so, provided that said public sewer is within 100 feet
(30.5 meters) of the property line.
The use of the Village of Montour Falls public sewers shall be strictly limited and restricted except as provided in §
117-8 to receive and accept the discharge of sewage and other wastes, including industrial wastes generated on or discharged from real property within the bounds of the service area of the POTW.
[Amended 8-21-1995 by L.L. No. 4-1995]
At the recommendation of the WWTPO, who determines
that one or more segments of the POTW is exceeding its hydraulic capacity
at any time and/or any specific purpose of this chapter is being violated,
the Village of Montour Falls Board shall have the authority to limit
or deny new connections to the POTW until the conditions leading to
the moratorium are corrected. Such correction may be by:
A. Construction of new facilities.
B. Enlarging existing facilities.
C. Correction of inflow and infiltration.
D. Cleaning and repairing of existing facilities.
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 Village of Montour Falls
Board, NYSDEC, USEPA and/or other such state or federal agencies which
have enforcement powers.
