Who pays for sewers in a new subdivision

In every subdivision where sewers, sewage pumping station, force main, outfall and sewage treatment units are deemed necessary by the County and State Department of Health, the cost of constructing sewage works shall be borne by the subdivider. The subdivider shall install and pay for any extension of sewer mains necessary to connect the subdivision to the public sewer system. All subdivision sewage works and any necessary extension of sewer mains shall be designed and constructed in accordance with the current County standards and as required by the County Engineer.Whenever, in order to provide for existing or future services beyond the boundaries of a subdivision, the County Engineer finds that the mains to be installed within the subdivision, or any main extension required to serve the subdivision should be of greater capacity or depth of laying than would be required to provide adequate service within such subdivision, the County Engineer will require the subdivider to make installations of such greater capacity or depth of laying. When the subdivider is required to install mains with greater capacity or depth of laying, the County will reimburse the subdivider the additional costs brought about by increasing the pipe sizes or depths of laying or the capacity of the pumping station, force main, outfall, or treatment plant to serve areas other than the subdivision as soon as practicable after the acceptance by the County of the completed work. Reimbursement will not be made to the subdivider where the additional capacity mains or sewage works will serve only areas under the same ownership as the subdivision under consideration.Before the subdivider enters into a contract where a reimbursement to the subdivider for additional costs of mains or other sewage works will be made, the County Engineer shall review and either approve or disapprove the contract. If the contract is disapproved, the subdivider shall revise the contract until its form and content is acceptable to the County.After the installation has been completed and accepted by the County, the subdivider shall furnish the County Engineer with an affidavit itemizing the costs incurred by the subdivider in the installation of said mains or other sewage works. The additional costs subject to reimbursement shall be determined by the County Engineer.
