Where laterals shall have been constructed, the City Commis- sion may require property owners to connect their premises with the laterals and may provide by general ordinance that in case of their refusal after notice given, the said connection shall be made by the City and that the cost thereof shall constitute a lien upon the house, land and premises thereby affected.
