This chapter shall apply within the city and/or the county with the approval of the Thurston County governing body, to all properties which require sewer service.

The city may defer any obligation to own, operate or maintain any sewer facility which is determined to be excessively remote or inaccessible as to permit effective and economical operation of the facilities by forces of the city, or which, in the opinion of the director of public works, will not be connected to permanent sewer facilities within a five-year period. (Ord. 877 §3 (part), 1990; Ord. 281 (part), 1973).
