(A) A registrant must promptly and at its own expense, with due regard for seasonal working conditions, permanently remove and relocate its equipment and facilities in the right-of-way whenever the Public Works Department requests the removal and relocation, and shall restore the right-of-way to the same condition it was in prior to the removal or relocation.
(B) The Public Works Department may make a request to prevent interference by the registrant's equipment or facilities with:
(1) A present or future city use of the right-of-way;
(2) A public improvement undertaken by the city;
(3) An economic development project in which the city has an interest or investment;
(4) When the public health, safety and welfare require it; or
(5) When necessary to prevent interference with the safety and convenience of ordinary travel over the right-of-way.
(C) Notwithstanding the foregoing, a person shall not be required to remove or relocate its equipment from any right-of-way which has been vacated in favor of a nongovernmental entity unless and until the reasonable costs thereof are first paid to the person therefor.
