Whenever this chapter or an ordinance granting a franchise requires the grantee to take any action or perform and complete any work within a specified time and the grantee is prevented from taking such action or performing or completing such work by reason of conditions or delays beyond the reasonable control of the grantee, the time for taking such action or performing or completing such work shall be extended by the time the grantee was so prevented. This section does not apply to the making of the annual payments required in this chapter and in the ordinance granting the franchise.
