No permit shall be issued by the Township Roadmaster which would allow an excavation or opening a paved and improved street surface less than five years old unless the applicant can clearly demonstrate that public health or safety requires that the proposed work be permitted, unless an emergency condition exists, or unless the Township Roadmaster determines that the work proposed is made technically infeasible or impossible by the aforesaid restriction.
A. 
No opening or excavation of any streets shall extend beyond the center line of the street before being backfilled and the surface of the street temporarily restored, unless otherwise permitted by the Township Roadmaster.
B. 
When any earth, gravel or other excavated material is caused to roll, flow or wash upon any street, the permittee shall cause the same to be removed from the street within eight hours after deposit. In the event the earth, gravel or other excavated material so deposited is not removed, the Township Roadmaster shall cause such removal, and the cost incurred shall be paid by the permittee or deducted from the cash deposit or surety bond.
C. 
Every permittee shall place around the project sites such barriers, barricades, lights, warning flags and danger signs as shall be determined by the Township Roadmaster to be necessary for the protection of the public. Whenever any person fails to provide or maintain the safety devices required by the Township Roadmaster, such devices shall be installed and maintained by the Township, and the costs incurred to be paid by the permittee or deducted from the cash deposit or surety bond.
D. 
No person shall willfully move, remove, injure, destroy, or extinguish any barrier, warning light, sign or notice erected, placed or posted in accordance with provisions of this Part 2.
A. 
Upon completion of the work authorized by the permit, the Township shall inspect the work and, when necessary, enforce compliance with the conditions, restrictions and regulations prescribed by the permit.
B. 
Within 48 hours of completing work, any permit holder who shall make any street opening shall cause such street opening to be restored to the same surface, good order, repair and condition in which it was prior to the street opening. All restoration work involving a public street shall be performed in accordance with Township specifications of the Township Construction Standard Details. The Roadmaster, as a condition of permit, may require temporary restoration of a street opening when such restoration is necessary to provide for public safety and where weather or availability of equipment or materials necessary to perform permanent restoration of the street opening within 48 hours of completion of the work is not possible. If temporary restoration is not competed within 48 hours, the Roadmaster may direct the performance of the temporary or permanent restoration work and shall charge the permittee for time, equipment, and materials in accordance with the Township's fee schedule. If not paid within 30 days, the Township may file against the posted financial security.
C. 
The permit holder shall be responsible for the maintenance of areas disturbed by such street openings for a period of two years from the date of the completion of such restoration and further shall pay or cause to be paid the costs of all work required or necessary in such restoration and maintenance. When written notice requiring repair or maintenance is given by the Township to the party responsible for making a street opening and such party shall fail or neglect to make such repair or perform such maintenance within 14 days of such notice, such neglect or failure shall constitute a violation of the provisions of this Part 2. Where any settlement or defect in the work occurs, if the applicant shall fail to rectify any such settlement or other defect, within 60 days after written notice from the Township to do so, the Township may do the work and shall impose upon the applicant the cost thereof, together with an additional 20% of such cost.
A. 
Any planted or landscaped area which is disturbed by work performed under the permit shall be restored to a condition at least equal to that existing before the commencement of construction. Any shrub, grass, tree or plant injured or destroyed shall be replaced with ones of the same size, color, species, condition, caliper and quality.
B. 
Any sidewalk, driveway or other privately owned or maintained facility or object damaged, destroyed or removed shall be restored to the satisfaction of the Township Roadmaster.
C. 
Any Township sign damaged, lost or destroyed by the permit holder shall be replaced by the Township, and the cost thereof shall be assessed against the permit holder or recovered by the Township as otherwise allowed by law.
D. 
If, during the course of construction, any municipally owned or maintained sewer, underdrain, manhole, catch basin, curb, guardrail or other facility or appurtenance is damaged, destroyed or disturbed, such condition shall be reported immediately to the Township Roadmaster, who shall then prescribe, direct, supervise and inspect the necessary corrective action.
Any person, firm or corporation who shall violate any provision of this Part 2, upon conviction thereof in an action brought before a District Justice in the manner provided for the enforcement of summary offenses under the Pennsylvania Rules of Criminal Procedure, shall be sentenced to pay a fine of not less than $100 nor more than $1,000, plus costs, including reasonable attorney fees incurred by the Township, and, in default of payment of said fine and costs, to a term of imprisonment not to exceed 90 days. Each day that a violation of this Part 2 continues or each section of this Part 2 which shall be found to have been violated shall constitute a separate offense.
