Implementation of planned public improvements shall be contingent upon approval by City Commission and the availability of necessary funding.
(C) Prior to applying for a permit for work involving a surface cut in the right-of-way, a party shall review the city’s current repaving and resurfacing and shall coordinate, to the extent practicable with each registrant, utility and street work shown on such plan to minimize damage to, and avoid undue disruption and interference with, the public use of the rights-of-way.
