SUPPLEMENT TO AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY FORM
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
The installation of utilities and approved facilities within the public rights -of -way causes
damage to the streets and sidewalks. The City Code currently requires the installers of
utilities and approved facilities to properly restore the streets and sidewalks upon
completion of the installation of the utilities and approved facilities.
To ensure that the proper restoration of the streets and sidewalks is completed, the
installer is required to provide a payment to the City, based on the cost of the restoration,
to be used by the City for the restoration in the event that the installer fails or refuses to
complete the restoration work.
Since the last update of the City Code Section 54-42, in 1983, the City has constructed
improvements to the streets and sidewalks using modern and, in some cases, enhanced
materials. The new materials must be repaired or replaced as part of the required
restoration and must be listed in the City Code. Additionally, the restoration estimates
must be updated to reflect current costs of construction.
