A. Before the city issues an encroachment permit, the applicant shall submit a written application on a form furnished by the director, setting forth:
1. The name and residence or business address of the applicant;
2. The location and approximate area of the encroachment;
3. The purpose, a plan or drawing, and a schedule for the proposed period of encroachment;
4. A traffic control plan, if required;
5. Any additional information required by Article II of this chapter relating to excavations.
B. The applicant shall pay a nonrefundable fee in an amount established by resolution of the city council to defray the city's costs to process the application and provide for site inspections. The fee may include costs incurred by the city to maintain an inventory or database of facilities that are installed, repaired or removed. If the director determines the fee to be inappropriate based on the amount of work to be done to process the application, to inspect the work and to maintain said inventory or database, or for other good cause shown, the director may waive the fee, in whole or in part.
C. No fee or requirement authorized or imposed pursuant to this chapter shall be construed to affect or alter in any way any obligation of public and private utilities with facilities installed in any public right-of-way to relocate the facilities at no cost to the city, in the event that relocation is required by the city to accommodate a proper governmental use of the public right-of-way. (Ord. 2009-022 § 2)
