[Amended 11-16-2020 by L.L. No. 10-2020]
Where it is necessary to tap the existing sanitary sewer in the street because no Town service lateral has been previously installed, it will be necessary to make these connections, excavations, backfillings, etc., in accordance with Town law or state or County Public Works Department regulations, as jurisdiction may apply. Work done in streets and other public rights-of-way shall be the responsibility of the property owner, including the installation of the service lateral to the property line. All of this work, including any permit fees or expenses, shall be paid for by the owner. See also §
136-55.
All work shall be done in accordance with these
regulations. Notice must be given to the Town Sewer Inspector by the
owner or his agent prior to the time the work is ready for inspection,
and no part of the work shall be covered until it has been examined,
tested and approved by the Town Sewer Inspector.
