13.08.010 Projects coordination.
The providers of water and sewer services and the city shall, as far in advance
as possible when working in public streets and drainageways, coordinate through
the Jefferson County Utilities Coordinating Committee all projects, each with
the other, to minimize current and future anticipated conflicts between public
street and drainageway improvements and water and sewer facilities. (Ord. O-94-39
§ 10, 1994; Res. 75-138 § 1, 1975).
13.08.020 Future alteration minimization.
Project planning and engineering conducted by the city and the various providers
of water and sewer services shall consider present and future plans in order
to avoid or minimize future alterations in such improvements and facility locations.
In cooperation with the provider of water or sewer service, the City Engineer
may indicate general location restrictions which would avoid future conflicts
but shall not direct locations which are incompatible with the general engineering
requirements of the water or sewer system. (Ord. O-94-39 § 11, 1994; Res.
75-138 § 2, 1975).
13.08.030 City's cost liabilities.
When facilities of the provider of water or sewer services require relocation
due to improvement, changes, or alteration of streets or drainageways, all costs
associated with water or sewer facilities relocation and restoration to the
equivalent of their preimprovement condition will be included and considered
as part of the total street or drainageway improvement cost and paid by the
city, unless prior installation of the water or sewer service facilities was
performed contrary to a proper location restriction. (Ord. O-94-39 § 12,
1994; Res. 75-138 § 3, 1975).
13.08.040 Service provider's cost liabilities.
Costs of adjusting manholes and valve boxes when such work is necessitated by
pavement repair or street resurfacing will be borne by the providers of water
and sewer service. Unless the provider of such services notifies the city in
advance that it will perform the work or desires the manholes to be covered,
adjustments will be performed by the city in accordance with standards of the
providers of water and sewer service and the city will provide a list specifying
locations of work performed together with the bill for such work. (Res. 75-138
§ 4, 1975).
13.08.050 Permit application review.
To the extent that work in the public way is regulated by city ordinance which
requires that such work be done under a permit from the city, the city shall
have the prerogative to review such permit applications for work in the public
way for the purpose of (1) location of the proposed facility in the street or
drainageway, and (2) compliance with construction standards of the city for
streets or drainageways. Locations in observance of the permit requirements
will be deemed proper. (Res. 75-138 § 5, 1975).
13.08.060 Work resulting from permit noncompliance-Costs
liability.
Should a provider of water or sewer service elect to perform work without coordinating
the project or perform the work without observing proper permit conditions,
the cost of any future relocations which would not have been required if the
coordination or permit conditions had been observed will be paid by the provider
of water or sewer services. (Ord. O-94-39 § 13, 1994; Res. 75-138 §
6, 1975).
13.08.070 Permit grant or denial.
If the provider of water or sewer services has coordinated its plans at least
thirty days prior to the proposed work, the city shall respond to permit applications
within three working days, approving the application as submitted or conditioned
upon specific location requirements. Failure to approve the application or specify
location requirements will be deemed consent to work in the proposed location.
Should the provider of water or sewer service fail to so coordinate the plans,
the city will respond to permit applications in accordance with Chapter 12.04
of this code. (Ord. O-94-39 § 14, 1994; Res. 75-138 § 7, 1975).
