[Amended 4-15-1974 by Ord. No. 1-74; 8-21-2012 by Ord. No. 17-2012]
A.
No person shall construct or alter any vault, coal bin or other room or place in or under any street or sidewalk unless a permit so to do has first been issued in accordance with the provisions of § 148-6 of this chapter.
B.
Applications for permits to be issued hereunder shall, in addition to the information required to be contained therein by § 148-6B of this chapter, state the number of square feet of ground required for the said construction or alteration and the intended length and width of the said construction or alteration and shall be accompanied by plans in duplicate for the proposed work. No permit hereunder shall be issued until the submitted plans have been approved by the Building, Housing and Land Use Department.
C.
Permits issued under this article shall be only of such duration
as shall be necessary for the completion of the construction or alteration.
D.
If, in accordance with the provisions of Article VII of Chapter 107, Licenses and Permits, any permit is revoked after the vault or other place shall have been constructed, just compensation shall be made to the owner of the premises abutting and connecting therewith; provided, however, that such compensation shall not in any case exceed the actual cost of construction of such vault or other place, plus the fee required to be paid under § 148-7A of this chapter.
A.
The Building, Housing and Land Use Department is hereby authorized
to inspect all vaults now or hereafter existing in or under any roadway
or sidewalk in the City. After inspection, it shall cause to be issued
inspection certificates setting forth its approval and the date of
inspection.
B.
Upon the request of the Building, Housing and Land Use Department,
immediate access to any vault under any roadway or sidewalk within
the City shall be provided by such person maintaining or using such
vault, for the purpose of viewing the inspection certificate or making
such inspection as the Building, Housing and Land Use Department may
deem necessary.
Whenever any vault, coal bin or other room or place in or under any public street or sidewalk shall be condemned as unsafe or inimical to the public welfare by the Building, Housing and Land Use Department, or whenever the removal of any such vault or bin is made necessary by public improvement or public utility, then the person maintaining or using such vault or owning, leasing or occupying the property to which the vault is an adjunct shall, upon notice duly given in accordance with the requirements of § 148-5 of this chapter, remove such vault and restore the earth, pavement, sidewalk, curb, gutter or other street surface to its proper and original condition.
