through Ord. No. 27-1999]
All water and sewer service connections between the street mains
and the curblines in the Borough shall hereafter be made by the Borough

system of the Borough of Spring Lake but also to connections to the
storm sewer system of the Borough of Spring Lake.

No. 2012-007; 5-13-2014 by Ord. No. 2014-008]

by a fee in accordance with the following schedule:
(1)
For each new sanitary sewer service connection: the sum of $2,500.
[Amended 5-13-2014 by Ord. No. 2014-008]

B.
All sewer and water service connection permits must be obtained prior to the issuance of a building permit, but the issuance of such a sewer and water connection permit shall be subject to the provisions of Chapter 225, Land Development, so that the issuance thereof shall give no guaranty that a building permit will be issued.
Hereafter it shall be unlawful for anyone except the Borough
Superintendent or his authorized agent to tap the water or sewer mains
or make any water or sewer connections in this Borough.
