Where a street surface railroad is located in any street, lane,
alley or public place which the City desires to pave, repave, surface
or resurface, the board of contract and supply may prescribe the materials
to be used and by contract provide for the improvement within the
space between the tracks of the street surface railroad, the rails
and two feet in width outside the tracts. The proposal for such improvement
shall include in separate items the improvement in such space. The
work shall be done at the same time and under the same supervision
as the work of improvement in the remainder of the street.

No. 4-1989, § 2]
Upon the opening of proposals for the work specified in Section 9.051 written notice shall be given to the person owning or operating the street surface railroad that proposals for the work have been opened. The notice shall also state the amount of the proposal and that a contract for the performance of such work, together with the contract for other work which may be necessary in the same street, lane, alley or public place, will be duly executed unless the person signifies its intention to complete the work, and gives sufficient guarantee therefor prior to the execution of the contract.

The Common Council may direct a street railway company to pave,
repave, surface, resurface or repair the space between its tracks,
the rails of the tracks, and two feet in width outside the tracks
in any street, lane, alley or public place with such materials as
shall be prescribed by the Board of Contract and Supply. If the street
railway company does not pave or repave, surface, resurface or repair
when so directed by the Common Council, the Board of Contract and
Supply may cause such work to be performed. The total expense of such
improvement shall be assessed and levied upon the property of the
company owning or operating the railroad and collected in the same
manner as other expenses for local improvements are assessed, levied
and collected in the City. An action may also be maintained by the
City against such company in any court of record for the collection
of such expense and assessment.
