When the township shall improve or pave any street, the Township Clerk shall first give notice to all persons owning property abutting on the street about to be paved or improved and to all public utilities and authorities operating in the township, and all such persons, utilities and authorities shall make all connections as well as any repairs thereto which would necessitate excavation of the street, within 30 days from the giving of such notice. The time shall be extended if permission is requested in writing and approved by the Township Engineer.
Unless there is determined that an emergency exists involving underground gas, water, sewer, telephone or electric facilities, no street opening permit will be issued for a period of 24 months after acceptance of the street by the township where a new pavement has been constructed or for a period of 12 months after acceptance of the street by the township where an existing pavement has been resurfaced.
