Dover Township shall give timely notice to all property owners abutting on any street about to be paved or improved, and to all public utilities with lines within the street right-of-way. All such persons or utilities shall make all connections or repairs which would necessitate opening the street within 30 days from the giving of such notice, unless extended by the Township in its sole discretion. New paving shall not be opened or excavated for a period of 5 years after the completion thereof, except in case of emergency, as determined by the Township. If an applicant seeks to open a street within the 5-year period, the applicant shall make written application to the Board of Supervisors, and a permit for such opening shall be issued only after express approval of the Board of Supervisors. If approval is granted, then the Board of Supervisors reserves the right to require the applicant to repave as much of the street, over and above the opening itself, as is necessary to restore the street to its prior condition.
