The city may dictate the pavement restoration method and materials. Said costs shall be borne by the property owner. Concrete sidewalks, curb, gutters and streets, and asphalt streets shall be saw cut.
   (B)   Should the integrity of the city street, ally, sidewalk or any other structure within the city right-of-way be in jeopardy due to a building service discontinuity, the city shall serve the property owner with written notice. The property owner shall have 48 hours therefrom to initiate the repair and shall effect the repair and temporary pavement restoration within an additional 36 hours. If the property owner does not initiate the repair within 48 hours, the city shall effect the complete repair up to the right-of-way line and charge the property owner for said service.
   (C)   Excavations for installing service pipes or repairing the same shall be made in compliance with the code provisions relating to excavations in streets, and no such excavation shall be made unless a permit is obtained (see Chapter 33).
