§ 24-246. Services for below grade users.  


Latest version.
  • Where a customer has built or located or will build or locate in the future any structure or facility below the practical grade of the existing sewer line abutting his property, the customer shall install a lifting device and deliver their sewage to the service connection of the sewer line at no cost to the board's sewer system. In no case will this condition be cause for not connecting to the sewer system.

    Sewer connections shall be mandatory regardless of elevation of buildings. However, a $1,000.00 discount from capacity expansion charges for individual residences required to install private lift pumps will be allowed.

    The board shall not be responsible for sewer backup damage to homes built less than 12 inches above the crown of the adjacent roadway.
