9-500.33. County island sewer connection; prohibition; state preemption
Notwithstanding any other law, a city or town may not require the owner of a property located in the city's or town's municipal planning area to connect to the city's or town's sewer system if the property is located in a county island as defined in section 11-251.12 unless the department of environmental quality has determined that connection is necessary to abate an environmental nuisance as defined in title 49, chapter 1, article 3 or to eliminate a threat to a water quality standard established pursuant to title 49, chapter 2, article 2. The property rights of property owners in this state are of statewide concern. This section preempts all local laws, ordinances and charter provisions to the contrary.
