No unauthorized person shall uncover, make any
connections with or opening into, use, alter or disturb any public
sewer or appurtenances thereof without first obtaining a written permit
from the Superintendent.
There shall be two classes of building sewer
permits: for residential and commercial service and for service to
establishments producing industrial wastes. In either case, the owner
or his agent shall make application on a special form furnished by
the Village. The permit application shall be supplemented by any plans,
specifications or other information considered pertinent in the judgment
of the Superintendent. A permit and inspection fee of $10 for a residential
or commercial building sewer permit and $25 for an industrial building
sewer permit shall be paid to the Village at the time the application
is filed.
All costs and expenses incident to the installation
and connection of the building sewer shall be borne by the owner.
The owner shall indemnify the Village from any loss or damage that
may directly or indirectly be occasioned by the installation of the
building sewer.
A separate and independent building sewer shall
be provided for every building, except that where one building stands
at the rear of another on an interior lot and no private sewer is
available or can be constructed to the rear building through an adjoining
alley, court, yard or driveway, the building sewer from the front
building may be extended to the rear building and the whole considered
as one building sewer.
The applicant for the building sewer permit
shall notify the Superintendent when the building sewer is ready for
inspection and connection to the public sewer. The connection shall
be made under the supervision of the Superintendent or his representative.
All excavation for building sewer installation
shall be adequately guarded with barricades and lights so as to protect
the public from hazard. Streets, sidewalks, parkways and other public
property disturbed in the course of the work shall be restored in
a manner satisfactory to the Village.
