[R.O. 2009 §715.090; CC 1976 §26-167; Ord. No. 227 §1, 7-5-1961]
The construction of any sewer attached to the out-fall lines,
interceptor lines or submains of the City's Sewer System which lies
outside of the City limits shall be done in accordance with the rules
and regulations in effect for sewer connections within the City limits.
Any connection outside the City limits will not be permitted unless
the owner agrees to annex to the City of Higginsville or the Board
of Aldermen determines that extraordinary circumstances warrant allowing
such connection. Said connection must be approved by the Board of
Aldermen and the Division of Health of the State of Missouri.
[R.O. 2009 §715.100; CC 1976 §26-168; Ord. No. 227 §1, 7-5-1961]
The fee for a sewer connection to supply service for one (1)
dwelling house only, to the existing out-fall, interceptor lines or
submains, shall be five hundred fifty dollars ($550.00), providing
that no other connection is made to such individual line.
[R.O. 2009 §715.110; CC 1976 §26-169; Ord. No. 227 §1, 7-5-1961]
The fee for connecting a lateral line to supply service for
more than one (1) dwelling shall be the sum of four hundred dollars

any connection is made to the existing City sewer lines.
[R.O. 2009 §715.120; CC 1976 §26-170; Ord. No. 227 §1, 7-5-1961]

In the event that the area containing the service connection

twenty (20) years from the date of the payment of the said fee to
the City, there shall be a reimbursement on an annual pro rata basis
relating to the number of years remaining of the twenty (20) year
period. For example, if five (5) years after the said fee is paid
to the City for a connection the land is taken into the City limits,
fifteen-twentieths (15/20) or three-fourths (¾) of the fee
so paid for said connection shall be paid to the then lot owner. Six
(6) months or more shall be counted as one (1) year in computing said
period of time.
