After April 15, 1975, it is unlawful for any supplying agency
to erect, maintain, use or continue to use, and operate or continue
to operate, any poles or overhead wire for the purpose of transmitting
or distributing electricity in the electric underground district;

(Prior code § 22.27)
Within 30 days after the supplying agency gives notice that overhead facilities are to be removed in a given portion of the electric underground district, it shall be the duty of the City Electrical Inspector, and he is directed to notify all persons owning real property served by the overhead facilities that are to be removed, by leaving a copy thereof with such owner, or with the tenant or occupant of the premises, and to further notify such property owners that if they desire to continue to receive electric service, they shall make all necessary wiring changes on their premises so as to receive service from the lines of the supplying agency at a new location as approved by the City Electrical Inspector and in accordance with the rules and regulations applicable thereto as approved by the Public Utilities Commission of the State. This work shall be accomplished within 30 days after the date specified that underground pull boxes will be installed as provided in Sections
13-12.200 and
13-12.210. If any such property owner fails to make the necessary changes in the electric wiring on his premises and thereby prevents the supplying agency from removing its overhead service wires from the abovedescribed underground district, the City Electrical Inspector shall, and he is directed to, disconnect such service wires from the premises of such property owner, and the cost of doing so shall become a lien upon the real property heretofore served from such service wires.
(Prior code § 22.28)
In the electric underground district, the supplying agency shall
terminate its electrical service conductors in an underground pull
box on a public thoroughfare adjacent to or at the property line of
the building or structure being served; provided, however, that in
the event the serving agency elects to serve a building or structure
from some other location than adjacent to or at the property line
or the building or structure, in any other approved manner, the provisions
of this section shall not be applicable. The serving agency shall
give to the person owning, operating, leasing or renting such building
or structure notice of the date when such pull box will be installed.
(Prior code § 22.29)
The electrical conduits and conductors for light, heat and power between the underground pull box and the main service switches in the building or structure being served shall be installed by the person owning, operating, leasing or renting such property 30 days after the date specified in the notice required by Section
13-12.200, as the date when such pull box will be installed.
(Prior code § 22.30)

remove the same within the time prescribed in this article.
(Prior code § 22.31)
In the event that any act required under this article by any
parties referred to in this article cannot be performed within the

beyond the control of the parties, then the time within which such
act shall be accomplished shall be extended for a period equivalent
to the time of such limitations.
