   C.   Standards: The permittee shall perform patching and restoration according to the standards and with the materials specified by the City and shall comply with Minnesota Rules 7819.1100.

   D.   Duty To Correct Defects: The permittee shall correct defects in patching, or restoration performed by permittee or its agents. Permittee, upon notification from the City, shall correct all restoration work to the extent necessary, using the method required by the City. Said work shall be completed within five (5) calendar days of the receipt of the notice from the City, not including days during which work cannot be done because of circumstances beyond the permittee's control or days when work is prohibited as unseasonal or unreasonable under section 8-4-15 of this chapter.
   E.   Failure To Restore: If the permittee fails to restore the right-of-way in a timely manner and to the condition required by the City, or fails to satisfactorily and timely complete all restoration required by the City, the City, at its option, may do such work. In that event, the permittee shall pay to the City, within thirty (30) days of billing, the cost of restoring the right-of-way, including management costs. If permittee fails to pay as required, the City may exercise its rights under the construction performance bond. (Ord. 2018-03, 2-26-2018)
