owners of all houses, buildings or improved properties where
public sewer became available after July 1, 1968 to connect to
said public sewer within sixteen (16) months after the sewer was
made available. Orono Ordinance No. 210, Chapter 22.20, Sub. 2.1
reiterates this 16-month connecti.on period requirement. Minnesota
