§4090. Apportionment of cost of connections with mains; making connections
A. For a lot of record which existed prior to 1954, one sewer connection and one water connection extending from the respective main to the property line shall be installed by and at the expense of the board, and from that point on, each shall be made at the cost and expense of the owner of the property.
B. For all lots created after 1954, the property owner shall bear all costs, inclusive of meter boxes, for connections extended from the sewer and water main to the property line. Any additional costs from the property line to on-site facilities shall be installed and maintained at the cost of the property owner.
C. Each owner may contract for the putting in of all connections with which he is chargeable, but all such work shall be done under the rules and regulations, and subject to the inspection and control of the board. The board shall take separate bids from contractors for making a property holder's connections, leaving to each property holder the right to require the work on his premises to be done by the contractor at the bid price, or to employ someone else for that purpose.
