A combination conduit system shall be constructed consisting of such duct space as may be required by each person, the ducts for each to terminate in a separate manhole to which no one except such person's own employees shall have access. Only such persons as have an express grant from the city council authorizing a conduit system shall have the right to duct space.
A conduit in any street may be constructed by any one of the persons requiring duct space, but the option of constructing such conduit shall be with the person requiring the most space and paying the largest proportion of the cost.
