(A) If it is necessary to adjust, relocate, add to, or otherwise modify the existing sewer system serving the area affected by an excavation or fill operation, for the purposes of providing drainage of the affected area or protecting the existing sewer system from damage, the Building Commissioner shall issue a permit in accordance with this chapter only if the applicant for the permit obtains a permit to provide, relocate, or modify the sewer system for the affected area at the expense of the applicant and grant such easements as may be necessary.
(B) In places where existing sewerage is adequate, but in the opinion of the City Engineer is of doubtful strength to carry additional loading, the Building Commissioner shall issue a permit in accordance with this chapter only if the applicant for the permit provides a bond of corporate surety authorized to do business in the State of Ohio naming the city as obligee thereof, covering replacement cost of the sewer and guaranteeing that the proposed fill will not damage the sewer for a period of one year after the fill is completed.
