(A) Whenever in the transaction of their business it shall be necessary for any individual, contractor, association, or corporation to dig into any street, alley, sidewalk, or way of the city, whether paved or otherwise, it shall be the duty of such individual, contractor, association or corporation to restore such street, alley, sidewalk or way to the same condition as existed before such excavation.
('72 Code, § 29-26)
(B) (1) The repairs of a street, alley, sidewalk, or way,
TO THE SAME CONDITION AS EXISTED BEFORE THE EXCAVATION shall mean that the individual, contractor, association or corporation opening pavements shall cut back the road foundation and wearing surface six inches on each side of the trench and thoroughly compact the backfill of all trenches, and in performing the work shall construct the repaired portion in conformity with the specifications and design standards of the street, alley, sidewalk, or way surrounding the repaired portion.
(2) In every instance where a street, alley, sidewalk, or way has a concrete foundation, the top of the backfill shall be subgraded and the excavation shall be filled with an eight-inch thick concrete slab 2,500 pounds per square inch set below the finished grade as hereinafter described. Such concrete slab shall be reinforced with two layers of standard six-inch by six-inch number ten by ten road mesh placed 1½ inches above the bottom of such slab and doweled or bonded to the existing slab or reinforcing. Where the wearing surface of the existing street, alley, sidewalk, or way is one-inch asphaltic concrete, the top of such concrete slab shall be set one inch below the existing grade and 1¼-inch asphaltic concrete shall be spread upon such concrete slab and compacted to one-inch level and smooth with existing grade.
(3) In instances where existing permanently paved streets, alleys, sidewalks, or ways are designated by the City Manager as a main thoroughfare or boulevard having other than concrete foundation the paving shall be as described for the streets, alleys, sidewalks, or ways, with a concrete foundation. All other streets, alleys, sidewalks, or ways, where required, shall have at least 12 inches of compacted lime rock replaced on compacted backfill in the opened trench, level and smooth with the existing grade. If the original wearing surface of the existing street, alley or way is lime rock sandseal, a water bond and sandseal consisting of 0.25 gallons of M.C. 2 asphalt per square yard shall be added and finished with one-half-inch of local screening sand and rolled. If the wearing surface of such street, alley, sidewalk, or way is macadam or asphalt the rock fill shall be compacted and subgraded to one inch below the existing grade and 1¼-inch asphaltic concrete shall be spread upon the fill and compacted to one inch, level and smooth with existing grade. All rolling herein specified shall be performed with a 7½-ton, three-wheel roller, or its equivalent.
