Utility Connections 

  • We strongly recommend replacing the abandoned utility services cut/capped during the demolition process, and installing single connections to the main service laterals at the leaseholder’s property line. 
  • The leaseholder is responsible for all costs associated with the replacement of utility services within the leasehold and, any  upsizing or relocation of utilities from the service mains. 
  • We will assume responsibility for all work and costs associated with the utility mains, laterals, CC's, sewer inspections, and lamping wells which will be repaired, replaced, inspected or installed at the time of utility connections. 
  • We must inspect the sewer before connections are made. Any debris in the sewer must be removed into the leasehold. Failure to do so may lead to obstructions and damage the the sewer mains. 
  • The Utility Team must inspect all connections before backfilled as stipulated in Bylaw #178 Section 10.1.1. 
  • Warning: Abandoned utilities within the leasehold might not be connected to the main services laterals.

  • Reconnections to MOJ Utilities will require the excavation of the new service trench containing live ATCO Electrical, ATCO Gas and Communication lines, located approx. 3m inside the leaseholder's property line.
