(A) It shall be unlawful for any person to cut any pavement on any street or alley within the town without a permit from the office of the Town Clerk; the permit shall first be approved by the Utility Superintendent or his or her designated representative.
(B) An estimate of the cost of cutting such pavement shall be made by the Utility Superintendent or his or her designated representative, and a deposit equal to the amount of the estimate shall be made by the applicant.
(C) The town may, at its option, either make repairs of the pavement which has been cut under the provisions of this section and charge the costs of such repairs to the deposit herein provided or require that the parson cutting the pavement make the repairs; in the latter case, the person’s deposit shall be returned, upon satisfactory repair of the pavement. Any balance remaining after all such costs are paid shall be returned to the person making the deposit. The town will charge a flat $100 fee for repairs.
(D) Any person cutting such pavement shall maintain proper safeguards with suitable lights during the night hours and sufficient in number to give warning of danger to all persons.
