§ 117.07 AUTHORIZATION REQUIRED.
   (A)   No person shall install, erect, hang, lay, bury, draw, emplace, construct, reconstruct, maintain, or operate any facility upon, across, beneath, or over any public right-of-way in the city or other city property without first obtaining from the city, or the state, the necessary authorization (e.g., in the case of a cable operator, a franchise or certificate of franchise authority) required under local, state or federal law.
   (B)   An owner or operator of facilities may be required to hold different authorizations for its use of the public rights-of-way to provide different services. For example, and without limitation, the owner or operator of facilities that provides both cable service and telephone service must obtain both a cable franchise and any authorization needed to provide telephony.
