41. All works connected with the construction, disconnexion, trapping, and ventilating of house-drains shall be carried out at the cost and charges of the owner of the building, either by the Board or by persons approved of by the Board, under the supervision of the Board and to its satisfaction.
42. The Board may, by a written notice, require the owner of any existing building the drains of which are, in the opinion of the Board, in a defective or insanitary condition to construct, within a reasonable time to be determined by the Board, new house-drains in accordance with the provisions of this Ordinance or of any by-law for the time being in force, or to make such other improvements in the existing defective drainage of such building as, in the opinion of the Board, may be necessary to meet the requirements of this Ordinance or of any by-law made thereunder.
43. If it appears to the Board that a group of contiguous buildings may be drained more advantageously in combination than separately, the Board may order that such group be drained upon some combined plan to be approved by it, and the cost thereof, together with the expenses of maintenance, shall be apportioned by the Board between the different owners of such group of contiguous buildings.
44. If any building is without a sufficient drain, and if a public sewer of sufficient size is within one hundred feet of the premises or outermost boundaries of the lot on which such building is situated, and if such public sewer is on a lower level, it shall be lawful for the Board to require the owner of such building to connect it with such public sewer by means of a proper drain adequately trapped and ventilated, to the satisfaction of the Board: Provided always that if any owner, by order of the Board, connects his building with a public sewer, he shall not be required to connect such building, at his own expense, with any other public sewer.
45. (1.) Whenever the Board has reason to believe that the drains of any building are defective and in a condition injurious to health, it shall be lawful for the Board to order an inspecting officer to enter the premises and to inspect such drains, and, if requisite for the purpose of such inspection, such officer shall cause the ground to be opened in any place or places he may deem fit, doing as little damage as may be.
(2.) If such drains are found in a satisfactory condition, they shall be reinstated and made good by the Board at the public expense, but if such drains prove, in the opinion of the Board, defective, the Board shall cause them to be properly reconstructed in accordance with the provisions of this Ordinance.
