When the Borough shall improve or pave any street, the Manager
shall first give notice to all persons owning property abutting on
the street about to be paved or improved, and to all public utility
companies operating in the Borough, and all such persons and utility
companies shall do all work which would necessitate excavation of
the street, within 30 days from the giving of such notice. The time
may be extended if permission has been requested in writing and has
been approved by the Manager.
Except in the case of emergencies as defined by this chapter, the Manager shall have the right to refuse to grant a permit which would allow an excavation or opening to be cut into a street pavement less than five years old. Any person so refused by the Manager shall have the right to appeal to the Hanover Borough Council, and Council's decision shall be final. It shall be the duty of any person requesting such opening to submit a formal request in such form as the Manager shall prescribe. If the opening is authorized by the Manager or Borough Council, such person shall pay to the Borough of Hanover the fee as specified in § 313-10A(1) through (5), inclusive. The Manager shall then issue in triplicate, formal authorization to secure a street opening permit. One copy shall be retained by the person requesting such authorization, one copy shall be given to the person making the actual opening and one copy shall be retained by the Borough. It shall be the duty of the person making the actual opening to then secure the street opening permit and comply with all other requirements of this chapter. Such fees as have been paid to secure such authorization shall be credited to the minimum excavation permit fee as specified in § 313-10A(1) through (5), inclusive.
