If any owner of any lot or parcel of land within the city shall fail and refuse to
connect with and use the facilities of the sewer or waterworks system of the city
after notification by the city, as provided in this article, then the city shall be
authorized to make such connections, entering upon any such lot or parcel of land
for the purpose of making such connection. The city shall thereupon be entitled to
recover the cost of making such connection, together with reasonable penalties and
interest and attorney's fees, by suit in any court of competent jurisdiction. In addition
and as an alternative means of collecting such costs of making such connections, the
city shall have a lien on such lot or parcel of land for such cost, which lien shall
be of equal dignity with the lien of state, county and municipal taxes. Such lien
may be foreclosed by the city in the same manner provided by the laws of Florida for
the foreclosure of mortgages upon real estate.
