9-48-15. Assessment of property for proportionate share of sewer previously constructed--Apportionment of payments among persons paying original cost. Whenever either a main sewer or trunk sewer or service sewer has been constructed for which the cost has not been apportioned against property which may be benefited thereby as provided by this chapter, chapter 9-43, or chapter 9-49, the governing body may require such property to pay its proportionate share of the cost of such construction, without interest, according to the benefits to accrue to such property before such property may be served by such facilities. The governing body shall make such investigation as necessary and shall find and determine the amount to be paid, which amount so paid shall be apportioned by the governing body as it determines among the persons, including the municipality, paying the original cost.
