The City shall, following receipt of a request for public disclosure of clearly marked trade secret and/or proprietary information submitted by a Provider, use reasonable Best Efforts and endeavor to provide five (5) days' notice to the Provider's System Representative that such a request for public disclosure has been made, at which point it will be the Provider's sole and exclusive responsibility to take whatever steps it deems necessary to protect such documents from disclosure.

All such documents shall be made available within the City or in such other place that the City may agree upon in writing in order to facilitate said inspection, examination, or audit.
(e) Rules and Regulations. The Director of Public Service may propose and adopt (and from time to time amend) the Rules and Regulations regarding this chapter, Design Guidelines, construction standards and occupancy requirements of the Right-of-Way. Prior to the initial adoption of the Rules and Regulations, the Director of Public Service shall provide written notice and a copy of the proposed language of such adoption, via regular U.S. Mail, to each Provider who holds a then current Certificate of Registration.
