[CC 1996 §510.270; Ord. No. 1139 §I, 4-10-2000; Ord. No. 1317 §I, 9-23-2002]
All locations where private driveways, roads, streets, alleys or other paths for motor vehicular traffic onto private property from public streets, alleys or roads shall be constructed so as to permit a good and proper flow of drainage water underneath said private driveway, etc., along with and parallel to the public street. Before such construction shall begin, an application for construction of an entrance shall be obtained, completed and returned to the City Clerk. All cost and construction of the entrance will be the sole responsibility of the property owner. As a minimum compliance with this provision, construction shall include the installation of a corrugated (including spiral) culvert with a minimum interior diameter of ten (10) inches, unless the drainage situation requires review to determine size needed (where flow may require larger or more adequate cover if drainage culvert is not adequate). Said culvert shall be installed beneath the surface of the private driveway, etc., but at an elevation so as to permit the good and proper flow of drainage water in the existing ditches and shoulder areas of the public street. Upon approval of the application, a permit will be issued at the cost of fifty dollars ($50.00) to be paid at the time the permit is received by the property owner.
