(3) Any pipes, fittings, receptacles, or other appliances for or connected with the drainage of private buildings or vacant lands shall, if supplied, constructed or erected at the expense of the municipal council, be deemed to be municipal property, unless the municipal council shall have transferred its interest therein to the owner of such buildings or vacant lands.
