My sewer line is not working, who is responsible to fix it?
Care and maintenance of the house sewer line (lateral) is the responsibility of the property owner including any part that extends from the building into the street or public right-of-way. This sewer lateral goes all the way from the building to where it taps into the city’s main sewer line usually located in the street or alley. When this line becomes plugged, it is the property owner’s responsibility to fix.
