Any person or persons, firm, or corporation desiring to dig or excavate in or upon any street or alley within the corporate limits of the city of Rainier shall first secure from the city recorder a permit to do or make such digging or excavating, which permit shall state the street or streets, alley or alleys, upon which such digging or excavation shall be made, also the purpose of such digging or excavation. Any person or persons, firm, or corporation desiring to secure such permit shall file with the city recorder a good and sufficient bond, in an amount not less than $50.00, which bond shall be approved by the city attorney; conditioned, that such person or persons, firm, or corporation securing such permit shall upon finishing such digging or excavation, replace or relay such street or alley in as good condition as such street or alley was prior to such digging or excavation; provided, however, that the city recorder may issue such permit only upon the recommendation of at least two members of the street committee of the council.
