1.  If the application is for a permit to connect any occupancy other than a commercial or industrial occupancy with any component of the public sewer system or drainage improvement, it shall specify the location and the area to be drained, together with such other information as the Chief Engineer may require. 

2.  If the application is for a permit to connect a commercial or industrial occupancy with any component of the public sewer system or drainage improvement, it shall contain a description of the business, a plat of the property, plans and specifications for any special installations, a description and time schedule of the character and quantity of waters and wastes to be discharged through the connection, and any further information required by the Chief Engineer.  No permit shall be issued for connection from a commercial or industrial occupancy until the Chief Engineer approves the application and determines that the connection as described in the application will comply with the provisions of this Title. 

B.  The Chief Engineer may refuse issuance of connection permits to any person until the requirements of permits previously issued are complied with.  This authority shall include, but not be limited to, denial of a permit when the applicant is delinquent in payment of fees or City charges for work performed for the applicant by the City or when the applicant has failed to complete work on any previously issued permit or permits.
