(a) Any person making a street or alley cut under a permit required by this article shall backfill the ditch as directed by the public works department.
(b) The public works department will be notified when the backfilling required by this section is completed. This notification will be accomplished by the submission of section C of the application form to the department of public works. Upon acceptance of the back-fill by the department of public works the permit holder will be notified that the city will take over the cut and assume liability for the safety of the traveling public.
(c) The public works department will then resurface the cut. At the time that the department begins the resurfacing of the ditch, the city assumes complete control over the ditch. In certain areas designated by the public works department paving cuts across streets will not be permitted. The crossing of these designated streets with pipeline or cables must be accomplished by boring, tunneling or jacking at the expense of the contractor.
