.010 If at any stage of work on an excavation or fill the City Engineer determines by inspection that the nature of the formation is such that further work, as authorized by an existing permit, is likely to endanger any property or public way, the City Engineer may require, as a condition to allowing further work to be done, that such reasonable safety precautions be taken as the City Engineer considers advisable to avoid such likelihood of danger. Such safety precautions may include, but shall not be limited to, specifying a flatter exposed slope, construction of additional drainage facilities, erosion control measures, berms, terracing, compacting or cribbing.
.020 If the work is not prosecuted with due diligence to completion, or if the work is prosecuted in a manner which endangers any adjoining public or private property, or if the work does not comply with the terms of this chapter, the City Engineer shall notify the permittee, in writing, and require the permittee, within such time as allowed by the City Engineer, to take such corrective measures as may be determined by the City Engineer. Upon failure of the permittee to undertake such corrective measures, the City Engineer may complete or cause to be completed, at the expense of the permittee, whatever work in necessary to restore the property to a safe condition. No notice to the permittee shall be required when, in the judgment of the City Engineer, a hazard to the public exists.
