Protection against damage shall be provided to such utility fixtures during the progress of the work.
(4) The sidewalk space may be occupied for building demolition purposes when approved by the Service Director, or designee, and a temporary fence, walk or covered walk is constructed and maintained in accordance with the provisions of this Code.
(b) Cleaning.
(1) The owner, or his agent, upon the completion of demolition shall immediately remove all walkways, debris or any other obstruction and leave the public property in as good a condition as it was before such work commenced.
(2) All public roadways shall be regularly cleaned to remove dirt, material or other debris as directed by the Service Director or in compliance with Chapter 412 of the Codified Ordinances of the City.
