(A) If all feasible routes to a requested terminal are found unsatisfactory by the Director, the applicant may request retrofitting of the deficiencies. All costs of engineering, construction, and inspection will be the responsibility of the applicant. Except when the retrofitting of deficiencies is within the jurisdiction of Caltrans, the actual construction will be done by the city or by a contractor acceptable to the city.
(B) When the work is to be done by the city, the applicant shall deposit with the city the estimated cost of retrofitting. Adjustments between the estimated and actual cost shall be made after completion of the work and any difference between the actual and the estimated cost shall be billed or refunded to the applicant as the case may be.
(C) If at any time within five years from the date of completion of the retrofitting by the applicant, should any applicant seek terminal approval which would use the route upon which such retrofitting was accomplished, any such applicant's fee may include that applicant's proportionate share of the retrofitting, as determined by the Director, which fee shall be disbursed by the city to the applicant who paid for the retrofitting, as well as to any applicant who contributed to the cost of retrofitting under this division.

(A) If the Director denies terminal designation, route feasibility or revokes a previously approved terminal or route, he shall notify the applicant in writing. The applicant, terminal owner, or other interested person, within 10 days following the date of the decision of the Director, may appeal said decision to the City Council in writing. An appeal shall be made on a form prescribed by the Director and shall be filed with the City Clerk. The appeal shall state specifically wherein there was an error or abuse of discretion by the Director or wherein its decision is not supported by the evidence in the record. Within 10 days of the filing of an appeal, the Director shall transmit to the City Clerk the terminal application, the sketches of the revoked route, and all other data filed therewith, the report of the Director, the findings of the Director, and his decision on the application.
(B) The City Clerk shall make copies of the data provided by the Director available to the applicant and to the appellant (if the applicant is not the appellant) for inspection and may give notice to any other interested party who requested notice, of the time when the appeal will be considered by the City Council. The appeal shall be scheduled for Council consideration at a Council meeting not later than 24 days following receipt of the appeal. The Council may continue consideration of the appeal for good cause.
(C) If Caltrans, and not the Director, denies or revokes terminal access from federally designated highways, no appeal may be made to the City Council, but must be made to Caltrans as may be permitted by Caltrans.
