Title 4 PUBLIC UTILITIES
Chapter 4.04 SEWERAGE SYSTEM*
4.04.360 Septic tanks--Water installation permitted.
Septic tanks may be installed upon any lot not closer than three hundred
feet to any public sanitary sewer; provided, that septic tanks may not be
installed upon lots that are too small to provide sufficient area to accommodate
the number of branches and the number of linear feet of drainage tile required
in the plans and specifications on file in the office of the plumbing inspector
and the building inspector. Septic tanks may not be installed upon lots that are
frequently inundated, or upon which surface water frequently stands, or upon
lots where adequate seepage from the drainage tiles cannot be obtained because
of soil water or soil structure. (Prior code § 4-1-53)
