No clearwater connection permit shall be granted for any tract of land unless a clearwater
connection charge has been paid to the City of Saint Paul in the amount of three cents
($0.03) per square foot of land being served by the clearwater connection. "Land served
by a clearwater connection" is defined as the entire area of any parcel except where
a large tract of unplatted land assembled into a single tract constituting an area
in excess of ten thousand (10,000) square feet is involved, in which case the property
served shall be the land area occupied by the building served plus the contiguous
land or improved area adjacent thereto amounting to not less than ten thousand (10,000)
square feet. Where portions of large tracts are served, plot plans of the area shall
be submitted with applications for storm or clearwater connection permits. Where a
public storm or clearwater sewer has been built under private contract and paid for
by one or more owners of land thereby served or provided to be served under a permit
authorized by the city council, and built in accordance with conditions specified
in said permit, then and in any such case, a permit shall be granted to connect all
or any of the land which said storm or clearwater sewer is intended to drain and which
abuts on said storm or clearwater sewer without payment of a clearwater connection
deposit.
