14-1-5: NONINTERFERENCE WITH EXISTING FACILITIES:
   A.   Interference Prohibited: All construction, installation, repair or relocation of lines and facilities performed by Grantee along or under the roads and rights of way or properties subject to this franchise shall be done in such a manner as not to interfere with the construction and maintenance of other utilities, public or private, drains, drainage ditches and structures, irrigation ditches and structures located therein, nor with the grading or improvement of such roads, rights of way or other public property subject to this franchise. When the Grantor plans improvements to roads, curbs and sidewalks, Grantee shall endeavor to install facilities which may affect such planned improvements before such improvements are made, to the extent practicable. Where possible, the Grantor shall notify Grantee in writing of all improvements planned at least one hundred twenty (120) days before construction of the improvement.
   B.   Disruption Of Service: Prior to Grantee's routine or scheduled construction, installation, repair or relocation of lines and facilities, where such routine or scheduled work will result in a disruption of electrical service to Grantor's utilities or facilities, Grantee shall give notice of such work to Grantor. Such notice will be provided to Grantor at least ten (10) working days in advance of such routine or scheduled work and will provide Grantor the opportunity to review and approve Grantee's schedule for completion of such work with regard to possible interference with, or damage to, other utilities, public or private, or facilities of Grantor. Grantor's objections to the proposed schedule, or its approval thereto, will be communicated back to Grantee as soon as possible, but in no event not later than three (3) working days prior to the planned commencement of work by Grantee. Grantee agrees to resolve any objections by Grantor prior to the commencement of such work.
   C.   Removal Or Relocation: The facilities of the Grantee shall be removed or relocated at the sole expense of Grantee where the improvements or changes to the City roads and rights of way, necessitating such relocation or removal of Grantee's facilities, are undertaken for the benefit of the public at large; however, where the benefit of such improvements to roads and rights of way, as determined by the Grantor, inures primarily to adjacent property owners, the costs of relocation or removal of Grantee's facilities may also be apportioned in the same manner that costs of improvements are otherwise apportioned among such owners directly benefitted.
