13.08.090 Separate sewer lateral required and allowable deviations.
Every building or parcel in need of sewer service shall be served by a separate and individual sewer lateral. Deviations from this requirement may be granted by the Director after plans have been submitted to and approved by the Building and Housing Department and the Public Works Department, engineering division, and it has been determined that the deviation will provide a practical sewage disposal system and will not impose a financial burden upon the City or relieve the property owner(s) from any financial obligation in connection with the cost of the public sewer or other sewerage facilities designed to provide sewer service to the subject building(s) or parcel(s). The Director may authorize use of the same sewer lateral in any of the following circumstances of deviation:
A. Where more than one building is situated upon the same parcel, all of which are owned by the same person, and said parcel may not legally be split or subdivided, or said owner agrees in a written instrument suitable for recordation that all of said parcel will be held under the same ownership as long as independent sewer laterals are not provided;
B. Where public school districts, governmental agencies or large commercial or industrial installations are involved;
C. Where two or more parcels are involved; provided, that a written agreement concerning use of the lateral and requiring private responsibility for the future costs of maintenance and repair of the lateral has been filed with the Director, fully executed and in a form suitable for recordation. (Ord. 2466 § 7, 1991).
