§ 146-282. Removal or relocation of structure or service.  


Latest version.
  • Permission shall be granted under this article under the express condition that such structure or service shall be subject to prompt removal or relocation within 60 days at the pleasure of the city after notice thereon from the city and at the expense of the grantee whenever the city shall request such removal or relocation for the purpose of the execution of public works or other franchises or permits of whatever nature, or for any public purpose on the site so occupied. Should a change of location or renewal within a period of time shorter than 60 days be so deemed necessary by reason of public danger or peril, then such structure or service or any part thereof shall be removed or shifted at the grantee's expense in the earliest time possible, or in default thereof such grantee shall suffer the removal or shifting at his expense. Should the grantee abandon the structure or service under the privilege granted, or should the same be partially destroyed so as not to be of any further use, the grantee shall remove the structure or service from public property and restore any existing utilities or structures to their original good condition. Should the privilege ordinance be cancelled by reason of default of payments in accordance with section 146-277, the structure or service shall likewise be removed from public property, and any existing utilities or structures shall be restored to their original good condition by the grantee. Upon expiration of the duration of the privilege granted, the structure or service shall be removed from public property, and any existing utilities or structures shall be restored to their original good condition by the grantee, unless the council has granted an extension of the privilege by ordinance.
