When any side sewer is constructed, laid, connected or repaired, and does not comply with the provisions of this chapter, or where it is determined by the Health Officer or the City Engineer that a side sewer, drain, ditch, or natural watercourse is obstructed, broken, or inadequate and is a menace to health, or is liable to cause damage to public or private property, the Health Officer shall give notice to the owner, agent or occupant of the property in which such condition exists. If he shall refuse to reconstruct, relay, reconnect, repair, or remove the obstruction of the side sewer, drain, ditch, or natural watercourse within the time specified in such notice, the Health Officer shall so notify the City Engineer and the City Engineer may perform such work as may be necessary to comply with this chapter. The cost of such work so done shall be charged to the property owner or occupant and shall become immediately payable to the Treasurer upon written notice of the amount being given to the property owner or occupant or posted upon the premises. (Ord. 208 § 19, 1957).
