(B) The word NECESSARY, as used in division (A), shall mean such rules, regulations, and ordinances or orders as the Village Board may deem necessary to protect and safeguard the health, safety, and convenience of the public and any member of the public residing within the village who might be affected by any excavation work or installation of the grantee, or maintenance, use, and operation of its television distributing system.
