Other uses.
a. 
For all other uses not listed in Subsection above, the Village Engineer shall determine the sewer connection fee as follows: A basic connection fee equal to that listed for a single-family dwelling in Subsection above shall be charged for any connection. In addition to this basic connection fee, a charge of seventy-five dollars ($75.00) for each fixture unit over twenty (20) fixture units shall be assessed.
b. 
Fixture units shall be determined in accordance with the Uniform Plumbing Code in effect at the time of the connection. Units for plumbing fixtures not included in the Uniform Plumbing Code shall be based upon the size of the fixtures, drainage pipe and piping in accordance with the following table:

c. 
Where drainage piping exceeds four (4) inches in diameter, the Village Engineer shall determine the number of fixture units based upon the discharge capacity of the piping.
3. 
Other determination. Whenever in the opinion of the Village Engineer the application of the above-described methods of determining sewer connection fees are grossly unreasonable and inappropriate, he may calculate an appropriate sewer connection fee, taking into account anticipated wastewater flow and strength characteristics for the building in question.
4. 
Demolished premises. Whenever enclosed building space is demolished, any construction of enclosed building space which takes place on the same parcel within five (5) years of that demolition shall be exempt from sewer connection fees to the extent of the number of square feet and the number of fixture units removed from the parcel as a result of said demolition work.
5. 
Existing premises. Buildings that are connected to the Village of Country Club sewer system at the time this Article goes into effect shall be exempt from these sewer connection fees to the extent of their square footage and fixture units at such time. Any proposed building for which a building permit had been accepted by the entity having building permit issuance authority prior to the date that this Article takes effect shall be considered to have been connected to the Village of County Club's sewer system. If, however, such building permit lapses and a new building permit becomes required, the proposed building will become subject to the full collection of sewer connection fees.
6. 
Payment of fees. All connection fees must be paid prior to the issuance of the building permit. The connection fee shall be collected for the Village of Country Club by the Village Clerk.
