Subd. 1. Permit required. It is a misdemeanor for any person to hereafter remove, or cause to be removed, any curb from its position abutting upon the roadway to another position without first making application to the Council and obtaining a permit therefor.
Subd. 2. Agreement required. No permit shall be issued until the applicant, and abutting landowner if other than applicant, shall enter into a written agreement with the city agreeing to pay all costs of constructing and maintaining the set-back area in at least as good condition as the abutting roadway, and further agreeing to demolish and remove the set-back and reconstruct the area as was at the expense of the landowner, his or her heirs or assigns if the area ever, in the Council’s opinion, becomes a public hazard. The agreement shall be recorded in the office of the County Recorder and shall run with the adjoining land.
Subd. 3. Sign-posting. “Angle parking only” signs shall be purchased from the city and erected and maintained at the expense of the adjoining landowner in all such set-back areas now in use or hereafter constructed. It is unlawful for any person to park other than at an angle in such set-back areas, as such angle parking is herein described and allowed.
Subd. 4. Public rights preserved. The set-back parking areas shall be kept open for public parking and the abutting landowner shall, at no time, acquire any special interest or control of or in such areas.
