No person to whom a permit has been granted shall perform any of the work authorized by the permit in any amount or quantity greater than that specified in the permit; except that, upon the approval of Public Works, additional work may be done under the provisions of the permit in an amount not greater than 10% of that specified in the permit.
(Ord. 7(1971) § 2(I); Ord. 43(1978) § 1; Ord. 7(2006) § 5)
Permits under this chapter are not transferable, and the work shall not be made in any place other than the location specifically designated in the permit, or by any person, agent or independent contractor other than the permittee unless specifically provided in the permit. The permit shall be issued and held only by the permittee making the street cut or using the public way. All billing shall be sent to the permittee.
(Ord. 20(1981) § 1; Ord. 7(2006) § 6)
Every permit shall expire at the end of the period of time set out in the permit. If the permittee is unable to commence or to complete the work within the specified time, such person shall, prior to the expiration date, present in writing to Public Works a request for an extension of time, setting forth the reasons for the requested extension. If, in the opinion of Public Works, such an extension is necessary and not contrary to the public interest, the permittee may be granted additional time for the completion of the work being done.
(Ord. 7(1971) § 2(K); Ord. 43(1978) § 1; Ord. 7(2006) § 7)
(A) Grounds. Any permit may be revoked by Public Works, after notice to the permittee, for the following grounds:
(1) Violation of any condition of the permit or of any provision of this chapter;
(2) Violation of any provision of any other applicable ordinance or law relating to the work; and
(3) Existence of any condition or the doing of any act constituting a nuisance or endangering lives or properties of others.
(B) Notice served; contents. Written notice of any of the violations or conditions designated in subsection (A) of this section shall be served upon the holder of the permit or agent engaged in the work. The notice shall contain a brief statement of the reason for the revocation and shall also indicate the time at which the violation may be corrected and work resumed. The notice shall be given either by personal delivery to the person to be notified or by certified or registered mail addressed to the person. When any permit has been revoked and the work authorized by the permit has not been completed, Public Works is authorized to take the steps necessary to immediately restore the public way to as good a condition as existed before the opening was made. The permittee shall be responsible for all replacement costs.
(Ord. 7(1971) § 3; Ord. 43(1978) § 1; Ord. 7(2006) § 8)
The opening which may be made in the street at any one time shall be no greater than will permit the reasonable use of the street by the public and will not endanger the public or workers, or cause substantial hazards in the use of the street by the public or town emergency services. Reasonable and adequate provisions shall be made for use of the street by the public, and the use of the street by the public may not be blocked entirely unless prior approval has been granted by Public Works, the Police Department and the Fire Department.
(Ord. 7(1971) § 4(A); Ord. 43(1978) § 2; 1997 Code; Ord. 7(2006) § 9)
No signs or traffic control devices shall be removed without consent and approval from the Department of Public Works and the Police Department. All signs and traffic control devices disturbed by the permittee shall be replaced to the satisfaction of Public Works. The permittee shall be responsible for all replacement costs.
