(A) The permittee shall at all times and at his, her, or its own expense preserve and protect from injury any adjoining property by providing proper foundations and taking other measures suitable for the purpose. Where, in the protection of that property, it is necessary to enter upon private property for the purpose of taking appropriate protecting measures, the permittee shall obtain consent from the owner of the private property for that purpose, and if he or she cannot obtain this consent, the Superintendent of Public Works may authorize him or her to enter the private premises solely for the purpose of making the property safe.
(B) The permittee shall, at its own expense, shore up and protect all buildings, walls, fences, or other property likely to be damaged during the progress of the excavation work and shall be responsible for all damage to public or private property or highways resulting from its failure properly to protect and carry out that work. Whenever it may be necessary for the permittee to trench through any lawn area, the area shall be reseeded or the sod shall be carefully cut and rolled and replaced after ditches have been backfilled as required in this subchapter. All construction and maintenance work shall be done in a manner calculated to leave the lawn area clean of earth and debris and in a condition as near as possible to that which existed before the work began.
(C) The permittee shall not remove, even temporarily, any trees or shrubs which exist in parking strip areas without first obtaining the consent of the appropriate city department or city official having supervision of the property.
