§ 118-24. Extension of sanitary sewer lines.

(a)

All sanitary sewer lines both inside and outside the city limits shall be extended at the cost of the party desiring such extension and shall be along and upon rights-of-way or easements in the name of the city as may be required by council. If the line is to be extended with city forces, the total estimated cost of construction shall be deposited with the city; any excess remaining after construction shall be reimbursed to the depositor, or any deficiency remaining in the actual construction cost shall be paid to the city by such depositor. The city shall maintain all sanitary sewer liens within all rights-of-way or easements belonging to the city and all lines within the same shall become city property. No sanitary sewer line shall be extended outside the city limits except upon written agreement with council. The term "costs," when used in this section, includes not only actual costs of labor and materials but also all costs for engineering services, required permits, required surveys, and expenses in connection with the preparation and securing of all necessary easements.

(b)

All construction of mains shall be of V.C.P eight inches or larger, as required after study by the city engineer or director of public works. Laterals shall be a minimum of six-inch V.C.P. or C.I.P., or larger, as required after study by the engineer or director.
