CBC Chapter 33, Division II, Section 3308.3 of the California Building Code is hereby added to read as follows:
Public streets and alleys shall not be utilized by persons doing construction or demolition work until proper clearance has been obtained from the City Engineer. Whenever requested, plot plans and construction details shall be submitted to the City Engineer for review. The City Engineer may approve, modify or deny a request to utilize public streets by persons during construction and/or demolition and his decision shall be based on findings relative to hazards to life and limb, traffic safety and/or to excessive traffic or pedestrian congestion. Where damage to public property could result, proper bonds and insurance as specified by the City Engineer may be required. Failure to obtain proper clearance for use of public property may result in a finding that the materials constitute a public nuisance and a hazard to persons or property and are subject to abatement and/or removal as provided by law.
