Who will bear the cost of cleaning septic tanks in residential areas?

Legal analysis: the cleaning cost of septic tanks in residential areas is borne by the owners, but the owners usually have to pay property fees, so some of the property fees include the cost of cleaning sewers.

Where the owner of a real estate needs to use adjacent land or buildings for building or repairing houses and laying wires, cables, water pipes, heating and gas pipelines, the owner of the land or building shall provide necessary convenience.
