No person, corporation, firm or political subdivision (other than the Town of Carefree) shall enter upon any public road, street, alley or way (collectively referred to hereinafter as "public street") or upon the right-of-way of any public street within the corporate boundaries of the town for the purpose of:
A. Performing any construction, reconstruction, installation, removal, repair, maintenance or alternation of any pavement, curbs, gutters, driveways, sidewalks, drainage or flood control facilities, water, gas, sewer or other pipelines, irrigation and wastewater facilities, electric, television, telephone, power and communication lines; temporary and permanent structures and signs; plantings, landscaping, water or drainage systems, or decorative placements; or
B. Grading, oiling, graveling or other surfacing of any road, street, alley or way;
without first having received a written permit from the town engineer for such work.
A. All applications for permits to perform the work described in Section 11-1-1 shall be in writing on such form as shall be prescribed by the town engineer, unless waived in writing by the town engineer. The application shall be submitted at least five working days prior to the start of construction, and shall be accompanied by at least three copies of a drawing, map, blueprint, diagram or similar exhibit sufficient to illustrate clearly the location, dimension, method and purpose of the proposed work.
B. Applicants for such permit may be either an owner or a contractor. However, the work may be performed only by a contractor, utility company, governmental agency or, in situations where the property owner proposes to do work between his property line and the back curb line, a resident owner of residential property. If the improvement to be constructed under the permit is not to become the property of the town and if the applicant is someone other than the owner, the owner shall also sign the permit form indicating that he agrees to the conditions of the permit.
C. Permits shall be issued only to the person, corporation, firm or political subdivision making application therefor and may not be assigned. If the permittee assigns or conveys his permit, the permit shall become void.
D. A permit shall be valid for one year from the date of issue or as otherwise indicated on the permit, unless sooner cancelled. If work is not completed within one year of the allotted time period, a new permit must be obtained for all uncompleted work. If no work is performed after a permit is obtained, the permittee may apply for a cancellation of the permit. If approved, the fee, less a processing charge, shall be refunded to the permittee.
