[Code 1991, § 9-164]
The franchisee, at its own expense and in a manner approved
by the City, shall replace and restore all paving, sidewalks, driveways,
or surface of any street or alley disturbed, so that it is in as good
condition as before the work was begun, and shall maintain the restoration
in an improved condition for one year. Failure of the franchisee to
replace or restore the paving, sidewalk, driveway or street surface
within 72 hours after completing work shall authorize the City to
have the proper restoration made at the franchisee's expense.
[Code 1991, § 9-165]
If the City shall lawfully decide to alter or change the grade
of any street, alley, or other public way, the franchisee, upon reasonable

and other facilities at its own expense.
[Code 1991, § 9-166]
A franchisee shall, on the request of any person holding a valid
building-moving permit, temporarily raise or lower its wires or cables
to permit the moving of buildings or other large objects. The expense
of temporarily raising or lowering of wires shall be paid by the person
making the request, and the franchisee shall have the authority to
require payment in advance. The franchisee shall be given at least
48 hours' advance notice to arrange for temporary wire changes.
[Code 1991, § 9-167]
A franchisee shall have the authority to trim trees overhanging
streets, alleys, sidewalks and public places of the City to prevent
their branches from touching wires and cables and other television

franchisee. A franchisee shall provide reasonable advance notice to
the City of its tree trimming activities.
