Whenever any permittee has completed any work under Class “B” permit, said permittee shall notify the City Engineer, or the City Engineer’s duly authorized representative, in writing. If the City Engineer has found, by survey or inspection, or both, that the work has been completed in accordance with the requirements of the permit issued therefor, and all the provisions of Sections 62.105 to 62.116, inclusive, the City Engineer shall issue upon request of the permittee, a certificate of acceptance which shall contain a statement of the location, nature and total amount of the work performed under the permit.
(a) All Class “A” and “B” permits issued under the provisions of Sections 62.105 to 62.116, inclusive, shall expire and be cancelled six (6) months after the date of their issue, unless sooner requested by the permittee and unless actual construction of the work authorized by the permit has been commenced prior to the expiration of the six (6) month period; all Class “A” and “B” permits shall expire and be cancelled sixty (60) days after the date on which actual construction of the work was commenced, unless a longer construction period is specified in the permit, in which case such permit shall expire at the end of the longer construction period specified therein. The Board may extend the time for the starting or the completion of the work, upon good and sufficient cause being shown therefor by the permittee, and such extension shall not be deemed to release any surety or any bond posted pursuant to Section 62.111.
(b) In the event any permittee shall not construct a portion of the work authorized by a Class “A” permit, such permit, upon the application of the permittee, may be cancelled as to the omitted work only.
(c) The permits issued for any work in streets designated by the Board as important traffic arteries shall contain a completion date specified by the City Engineer in the permit and the permittee shall complete the work within the time specified in said permit.

Upon expiration or cancellation of any Class “A” permit, the Bureau of Engineering shall refund to the permittee fees paid pursuant to the provisions of Subsection (b) and (c) of Section 62.109, after deduction of all charges applicable to work completed pursuant to the permit. In no event shall a permittee be entitled to a refund of the fee paid pursuant to the provisions of Subsection (a) of Section 62.109. To obtain a refund pursuant to the provisions of this Section, a permittee must submit a written claim pursuant to the provisions of City Charter Section 350.
No person to whom a permit has been granted under the provisions of Section 62.105 to 62.116, inclusive, shall perform any of the work mentioned in Section 62.105 in an amount or quantity greater than that specified in the permit, except that upon approval by the City Engineer, additional work may be done under the provisions of this permit in an amount not greater than ten per cent (10%) of the amount specified in the permit. Any bond posted in connection with the original permit shall be deemed to cover any such additional work as may be approved pursuant to this section, within the limit mentioned herein.
No person performing any work under the provisions of Sections 62.105 to 62.116, inclusive, shall fail, neglect or refuse to remove all material and debris within three (3) days after the completion of the work. Where new work is covered with earth, the terms of the specifications of this City governing such work shall control.
(a) Sections 62.105 to 62.116, inclusive, shall not be construed to apply to the performance of any of the classes of work therein mentioned under contracts made by property owners and duly authorized by ordinance, or under contracts made by the Board in accordance with the provisions of the Charter of this City or the general laws of the State of California, providing for the improvement of streets in municipalities.
(b) Sections 62.105 to 62.116, inclusive, shall not be construed to apply to the construction, reconstruction, or re- pair of any curb or sidewalk by any department of this City or other governmental agency which elects to perform such work using its own departmental forces where in the opinion of the City Engineer surveys, plans or inspection are not required. This exception shall not apply to the performance of any such work by the contractor engaged to perform the same by any such department or governmental agency.
Any person who desires to have the Department of Public Works perform any special service or any grading, construct any pavement, or other surfacing, or curb, sidewalk, gutter or any other public works in any street, alley or other public way either by the letting of a contract therefor or by using labor employed by the City and materials purchased by the City, and who desires to pay to the City the cost or any portion of the cost of such work, may apply to the Board of Public Works therefor. The Board of Public Works is hereby empowered, at its discretion, to arrange for the performance of said work and to accept deposits of such amounts as shall be determined by the Board to be necessary to pay the costs of the said work or portion thereof, and the amount of incidental expenses incurred by the City, or portion thereof, in connection with the performance of said work. Said amounts shall be deposited with the City Treasurer to the credit of appropriate funds under the jurisdiction of the Board, for which a proper receipt shall be rendered to the depositor.
Upon the completion of the work, any unused portion of the money deposited shall be refunded to the depositor.
