Before any permit for any such connection, opening or excavation is issued, the owner or other person applying therefor shall pay a permit fee of three dollars ($3.00) for the purpose of covering the cost of issuance of permits, of preservation of necessary records and of inspection. However, such permit fees shall not apply to a public utility which has deposited the sum of three hundred dollars ($300.00) with the Director of Finance to secure the cost and expense of placing any such street, public way or property in a condition as good as existed prior to the making of any such opening or excavation, which deposit is hereby authorized.
