Whenever the council has ordered any street, highway, avenue, alley, public ground or place permanently improved by paving and the city council shall deem it necessary that the connections from any sewer, gas line, water line, steam heating pipe or underground electric connection should be made to the curbline of any adjacent property, they shall serve written notice on the owner of said property, either personally or by mail or by posting on the property to make said connections by a date fixed which shall not be less than ten days after such notice is given, or to show cause in writing filed with the director of the environmental services department within the time why the connections should not be made.  At the expiration of the time fixed, the director of the environmental services department or his duly authorized agent shall report the matter to the council with all objections filed and such recommendations as he may deem proper, and thereupon the council shall, by resolution, order the making of such connections as they shall deem necessary.  (Ord. 98/U-6424)
