(A) (1) When the resolution provided for in § 100.65 has been passed by the Common Council, the City Clerk shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, issue and cause to be served by the police force a written notice informing the company or companies of the adoption of the resolution, and that the resolution is filed in the Clerk’s office where it may be inspected by them.
(2) This notice shall specify the time limited for making the new construction or repair and a description of the street or sidewalk crossing to be so repaired. In case the company is a nonresident of the city, the notice shall be posted in a conspicuous place on the crossing or parts thereof.
(3) It shall be the duty of the company or companies to make the new construction or repairs in the manner prescribed in the resolutions and within the time limited therefor under the direction of the City Engineer and to his or her satisfaction and acceptance.
(B) (1) In case any street or sidewalk crossing shall be so out of repair as to be dangerous for use, the Street Commissioner shall without action of the Council, at once give a written notice to the company or companies in case they are residents of the city and in case they are nonresidents of the city or cannot be found, no notice shall be required to immediately repair the street or sidewalk crossing.
(2) In case of failure to do so, the Street Commissioner shall cause the new construction or repairs to be made, at once, under the direction of the City Engineer and to his or her satisfaction and acceptance.
(3) Thereupon proceedings shall be had for the assessment of the costs on the property and the collection of the costs as provided for in this chapter.
