Syllabus

<p>Sewers — Assessments—Private sewers.</p> <p>The fact that a landowner constructed a private sewer sufficient for his property with the consent of the municipality, will not relieve him from assessments for a public sewer subsequently constructed by the municipality under the street upon which his property abuts.</p> <p>In such a case it is immaterial that the sewer clerk of the city issued permits allowing other properties to be connected with the private sewer, and that a schoolhouse owned by the city was connected with the private sewer.</p>
