No curb or part of a curb shall be cut for access from a public street without the approval of the Building Commissioner and the City Engineer. In the event that an owner of land desires to relocate access to private property which requires a curb cut in a different location than the original curb cut, the Commissioner and the Engineer shall withhold approval of the new curb cut location until a plan is submitted by the owner to replace the original curb which had been removed. Curbing to be placed shall be in accordance with specifications approved by the Engineer and shall be of the type and quality required by the ordinances of the City in effect at the time of replacement.
In the event that the owner of real property fails to replace a curb cut which has been relocated because of use or change of access within forty-five days after written notice has been sent to such owner by certified mail to the owner's last known tax mailing address as set forth in the records of the Cuyahoga County Recorder's office, the Director of Public Service shall forthwith cause to have the curb replaced and all costs in connection therewith charged to the owner of the property. In the event that the owner fails to pay within twenty days after the completion of the work, the cost attributable to the replacement of the curb shall become a lien upon the real property of the owner and the Director of Finance shall certify the costs to the County Auditor. Such costs are determined to be an assessment against the real property of the owner to be collected over a five-year period in five equal installments plus interest.
