§ 78-128. Assessment of district sewers.  


Latest version.
  • (a)

    The cost of district sewers shall be assessed upon all the assessable tracts in the district, in proportion as the area of each of the several tracts in the district is to the area of all the tracts in the district, exclusive of public highways and parks; and the cost of subdistrict laterals shall be assessed in like manner upon all the assessable tracts in the subdistrict.

    (b)

    The acquisition, however, of any submain may be omitted until such time as it may be required, in which case subdistricts so left without submains shall not be assessed for any part of the cost of submains acquired along, with and as a part of the sewer district.

    (c)

    Whenever submains so omitted are required and are constructed, they may be ordered as provided for other sewers, and their cost shall be assessed to the subdistricts which are supplied with submains.
