A. None of the duties or privileges imposed or conferred by this chapter shall in any way be deemed to authorize or allow the obstruction of any street, either during or after any work upon any sidewalk, except under the permit therefor.
B. No material removed from any sidewalk shall be placed upon any portion of any adjacent street, alley, place or square, unless allowed to do so pursuant to the terms of the permit.
