(a) A person making a pavement cut or excavation for the purpose of adjusting facilities at the request of the city in advance preparation for a city street paving or storm drainage project shall obtain a permit under this article, except that the time limits prescribed in Section 43-139(c) and (g) do not apply.
(b) The permittee shall maintain the pavement cut or excavation until the work order authorizing the construction of the street paving or storm drainage project is issued by the city. Upon notification by the director of any problem with the maintenance of the cut or excavation, the permittee shall promptly correct the problem. The permittee shall notify the director of the anticipated date of correction. If the correction is not made by the anticipated date, or if no response is received by the director within 24 hours after the director gives notice to the permittee, the correction may be made by the city, and the permittee shall reimburse the city for the actual direct and indirect costs of the correction.
