B. In the event of an unexpected repair or emergency, a telecommunications provider may commence such repair and emergency response work as required under the circumstances, provided the telecommunications provider shall notify the city as promptly as possible, before such repair or emergency work commences or as soon thereafter as possible if advance notice is not practicable. Further, the telecommunications provider shall apply for a permit and pay all associated fees as soon as the emergency is abated.
