Sec. 7. (a) If a district constructs sewers or water mains as a part of the construction of the works that are suitable for use as a local or lateral sewer or main by abutting or adjoining property, the district may charge for the connection on the basis of the pro rata cost of construction of a local or lateral sewer or water main sufficient to serve the property.
(b) Each property owner must agree to pay for the connection in making an application for service. If payment is not made as agreed, the payment constitutes a lien on the property for which the connection is made.
(c) The proceeds of the connection charges may be handled as:
(1) net revenues of the works; or
(2) payments toward the cost of construction or future improvements.
