Any person issued a public way use permit for subsidewalk space use and who has conveyed his interest in the premises for which said permit is issued, shall notify the commissioner of business affairs and consumer protection, in writing, of the said conveyance and shall furnish, in writing, the name and address of the purchaser thereof. Upon the giving of such notice to the commissioner of business affairs and consumer protection, the conveyor or the purchaser may apply to the commissioner of transportation for a permit to close up any coalhole, trapdoor or other opening maintained in said sidewalk in a condition similar to the balance of the sidewalk in front of said premises. If the purchaser of the premises wishes to continue to use the subsidewalk space, he or she shall apply for a public way use permit.
Nothing in this section shall authorize any person to make an opening in, or construct or repair any pavement in the public way or other public place unless such person holds a public way work license if such a license is required by Chapter 10-20 of this Code.
