No person, not having a contract with the City therefor, shall construct any pavement, sidewalk, sewer main, water main, curb connection or other improvement in or upon any public street, road, alley or public place within the City unless a permit therefor has been duly issued by the Commissioner of Building after the conditions set forth in this chapter are complied with and a charge of ten dollars ($10.00) is paid for the issuance of the permit.
(Ord. 1-84. Passed 11-12-84.)
No permit shall be issued by the Commissioner of Building for the improvements referred to in Section 901.01 unless the plans and specifications therefor are submitted to the Commissioner and meet with his approval. Such permit shall not be issued until the applicant shall guarantee the completion of the work to be undertaken to the satisfaction of the Commissioner, or until the Commissioner is satisfied that the applicant is able financially and will complete the improvements undertaken. A deposit shall be made with the Commissioner sufficient in his opinion to meet the cost of a City Inspector, who shall oversee the work undertaken and stop the same when it is found that the plans and specifications therefor are not being complied with. When the Commissioner finds that the work will be or may become dangerous to the public or there is danger of liability to the City for work negligently performed, the Commissioner shall also require from the applicant an indemnity bond safeguarding the City against any and all liability arising or growing out of such work, and with such surety and in such amount as the Commissioner shall approve.
