Any necessary side sewer cleaning shall be performed at the expense of the property owner. Prior to engaging in cleaning the existing side sewer, the property owner shall notify the city of intent to engage in such cleaning operation.
(Ord. 930 § 2, 1980)
Any repairs to a side sewer determined by the DPW to be necessary shall be made by the owner not later than 30 days after the date of mailing or personal service of a notice on the owner of the property that is served by such side sewer, notifying such owner to make the repairs specified in the notice within the time specified in such notice. In the event of an emergency, the DPW may establish and specify in the notice a shorter period of time for making the repairs or, if the owner cannot be located, or does not promptly make such repairs within the time specified, the city, in addition to any other remedy, may make such repairs under the direction of the DPW, and the owner of said property shall be personally liable, jointly and severally, for the cost thereof, and in addition thereto the cost thereof shall be levied against the property, and such cost shall bear interest at the rate of 10.5 percent per year, and such cost and interest shall be a lien against the property, which lien shall be enforceable as provided in AS 09.45.170 through 09.45.220. Such lien shall be prior and paramount to all other liens or encumbrances against the property except those for property taxes or special assessments. Such cost and interest may be collected by a personal action brought in the name of the city or by foreclosure of the lien, or both.
(Ord. 930 § 2, 1980; Ord. 1080 § 8, 1986)

The procedure shall be accomplished in a manner approved by the DPW not later than 30 days after the removal, damage, destruction, or condemnation of the building. A cap-off permit must be obtained from the city prior to cap-off.
