(A) Application for license. A person wishing to erect, install, maintain, operate, repair, replace, remove or restore a private communications system in the rights-of-way must obtain a license therefore from the city. Such license shall only authorize placement of the private communications system in a specific portion of the rights-of-way for a limited period of time and for a specific purpose in connection with the person's business and shall not permit the use of the private communications system to provide communications service to any other person or to the public. Such person shall submit an application to the city on such form as may be developed by the city, accompanied by such application fee as may be determined by the city.
(B) Conditions of license. Any license shall be subject to such conditions as the city may from time to time establish, shall be expressly subordinate to the use of the rights-of-way by the city and franchisees, and shall otherwise conform to the requirements of this chapter.
(C) Compensation. A private communications system owner shall pay a fee established by the city from time to time to reflect the fair market value of the rights-of-way used.
