(A) Reservation of right. If the city vacates a right-of-way which contains the equipment or facilities of a registrant or permit holder, and if the vacation does not require the relocation of the registrant’s or holder’s equipment or facilities, the city shall reserve, to and for itself, and all registrants or permit holders having equipment and facilities in the vacated right-of-way, the right to install, maintain, and operate any equipment and facilities in the vacated right-of-way, and to enter upon the right-of-way at any time for the purpose of reconstruction, inspecting, maintaining, or repairing the same.
(B) Relocation of facilities. If the vacation requires the relocation of the registrant’s or holder’s equipment or facilities; and if the vacation proceedings are initiated by the registrant or permit holder, the registrant or permit holder must pay the relocation costs; if the vacation proceedings are initiated by the city, the registrant or permit holder must pay the relocation costs unless otherwise agreed to by the city and the registrant or permit holder; or if the vacation proceedings are initiated by a person or persons other than the registrant or permit holder, the person or persons must pay the relocation costs.
