(A) Authority Granted; No Property Right or Other Interest Created. A permit issued by the Village Manager in accordance with this Article authorizes a permittee to undertake only certain activities in accordance with this Division on Village-owned land and/or rights-of-way, and does not create a property right or grant authority to the permittee to impinge upon the rights of others who may have an interest in such land and/or the rights-of-way.
(B) Duration. No permit issued under this Division shall be valid for a period longer than six (6) months unless construction is actually begun within that period and is thereafter diligently pursued to completion.
(C) Pre-construction Meeting Required. No construction shall begin pursuant to a permit issued under this Division prior to attendance by the permittee and all major contractors and subcontractors who will perform any work under the permit at a pre-construction meeting. The pre-construction meeting shall be held at a date, time and place designated by the Village Engineer with such other Village representatives in attendance as the Village Manager deems necessary. The meeting shall be for the purpose of reviewing the work under the permit, and reviewing special considerations necessary in the areas where work will occur, including but not limited to presence or absence of other utility facilities in the area and their locations, procedures to avoid disruption of other utilities, use of rights-of-way by the public during construction, and access and egress by adjacent property owners.
