[CC 1971 §22-82; Ord. No. 496 §1, 8-15-1961]
A licensed engineer designated by the Board of Aldermen shall lay out and plan ditches as to depth, grade and any other specifications necessary to the proper construction of ditches along the public streets of the City as he may deem necessary in the proper exercise of his duties.
[CC 1971 §22-83; Ord. No. 496 §2, 8-15-1961]
In conjunction with the laying out of ditches, as provided in this Article, the engineer shall set up specifications for tubes and bridges to be placed in said ditches as crossings into any private parties' property abutting said street upon which said engineer has deemed it necessary to construct ditches for proper drainage and protection of streets.
[CC 1971 § 22-84; Ord. No. 496 §3, 8-15-1961]
Any person desiring a crossing over any ditch in front of his property shall consult with the designated engineer for the necessary specifications as to size of tube or proper method and materials to be used in the construction of a bridge. After this is done, the property owner or someone for him shall furnish the tube or materials and the City shall install the tube. In the event the construction of such crossing involves more than the simple installation of a tube, the person desiring such crossing shall be responsible for the proper construction of such crossing.
[CC 1971 §22-85; Ord. No. 496 §5, 8-15-1961]
Any person who shall fail to consult with the engineer designated by the City through the Board of Aldermen and who shall erect or place an inadequate or insufficient tube or bridge over any ditch within the City shall be subject to removal of said tube or bridge by the City and the crossing abandoned until such time as an adequate and sufficient tube shall be placed in said ditch or until an adequate and sufficient bridge shall have been built over said ditch.
[CC 1971 §22-86; Ord. No. 496 §4, 8-15-1961]
Permission is hereby expressly given to seed any ditch within the City if desired by the individual property owners affected thereby.
