a. The permittee shall make proper repairs to ensure minimal future impact to motorists. The permittee shall warrant the excavation repair for a period of two (2) years from the completion of the permanent repair. Excavation repair failure shall be deemed as trench variation or cracking in or immediately adjacent to the repaired area. Trench variation of one half inch (½”) or greater along a ten (10’) foot straightedge shall constitute failure. Additionally, cracking within one (1’) foot outside of the repair shall constitute failure. Should the repair fail, the permittee shall make necessary corrections at the direction of the Planning and Design Division.
b. Should a permittee cut a recently paved street, the permittee shall be required to repave the entire paved section. The use of seamless, thermal bonded asphalt repair, such as infrared repair, may be used in lieu of repaving an entire section. The entire section shall be deemed as the section from the cut to the nearest intersection or one hundred (100’) feet on both sides of the cut, whichever is less. A recently paved section shall be defined as paved within two (2) years prior to the excavation.
