(A) Upon the presentation to the Street Superintendent of the receipt of the City Clerk showing the payment of all sums required to be paid to the City Clerk under any of the provisions of this chapter, and upon the filing of duplicate plats when such plats are required, the Street Superintendent shall issue a written permit to make such excavation, provided however, that whenever a permit for any excavation has been issued the street Superintendent may refuse to issue other permits for excavations in such street or alley until such excavation is made and refilled, if in his judgment such additional excavations shall interfere with the public use of such street or alley or travel thereon.
(B) Such permit shall specify the person to whom the same is issued, the street, alley or other public place and the particular portion or portions thereof to be excavated and the extent of such excavation.
(C) No permit is transferable.
(D) Every such permit for any excavation shall become and be void unless the excavation to be made pursuant thereto is commenced within five days from the date of the issuance of such permit and the work to be done pursuant thereto shall be done and the excavation refilled in the manner required by this chapter within five days after the work of such excavation is commenced and nothing herein contained shall be deemed or construed to allow a longer period of time therefor.
(E) Every such permit for any excavation mentioned in § 12.08.010 shall become and be void unless the excavation to be made pursuant thereto is commenced within ten days from the date of issuance of such permit and the work to be done pursuant thereto shall be done and the excavation refilled in the manner required by this chapter within 30 days after the date of the issuance of such permit; provided, however, that the Street Superintendent may grant a reasonable extension of time for a period not exceeding 30 days for the performance of such work and the refilling of any excavation mentioned in § 12.08.010, whenever the Street Superintendent shall deem good cause exists therefor, and provided further, that if any such extension of time be granted such permit shall become and be void unless all such work shall be done and such excavation refilled in the manner required by this chapter prior to the expiration of such extension of time.
