The insurance policy shall provide that it shall not be cancelled until after at least thirty days’ notice in writing to the Commissioner of Public Works.

Pay to the City Treasurer an annual fee, which has an initial amount of $50.00. The subsequent annual fee is subject to change pursuant to the annual fee schedule in effect at the time of annual billing.

Whenever this special privilege is discontinued for any reason whatsoever, including public necessity whenever so ordered by resolution adopted by the Common Council not only remove all construction work executed pursuant to this special privilege, but shall also restore to its former condition and to the approval of the Commissioner of Public Works and curb, pavement or other public improvement which was removed, changed or disturbed by reason of the granting of this special privilege.
