§ 22-46. Approval to lapse; connection permit.

(a) 

Approval of a sewer permit application shall automatically lapse 90 days after the date of the approval of the application unless a written extension is granted by the Sewer Commission prior to the expiration of said ninety-day period. Within such time period, the applicant must construct the sewer, complete the connection to the sewer line and obtain the connection permit. A connection permit shall be issued only after all such work, including the actual connection to the sewer line, has been inspected and approved by the Sewer Commission. Upon issuance of a connection permit, the applicant shall be billed for, and shall be obligated to pay, the sewer use charges, regardless of discharge.

(b) 

Once an approval has lapsed, the applicant will be required to submit a new sewer permit application to the Sewer Commission for approval and to pay a new sewer connection charge as required by § 22-45 hereof before further authorization to construct and connect the building sewer will be granted. All work on the construction of the building sewer shall immediately cease whenever the sewer permit under which it is being performed has lapsed.
