A. 
Generally. Immediately after backfilling the excavation for which a permit has been granted under § 229-25, the permittee shall place thereon an acceptable temporary resurfacing as provided herein below. Such temporary resurfacing shall be maintained even with the roadway or other surface, as directed, until permanent restoration of the surface is ordered by the Director.
B. 
Material. The temporary resurfacing shall consist of not less than two inches of Amiesite or Colprovia or approved material equal thereto when the opening was made in an existing concrete, asphaltic, bitulithic or macadam pavement, and not less than two inches of acceptable cinders in all other cases, except that where topsoil, seeded areas or sod have been disturbed by the excavation, the permittee shall restore the ground surface to the same condition as existed before the work was begun.
C. 
Settlement. Permanent restoration of the surface over a street opening excavation shall not be made until satisfactory settlement of the backfill has taken place, in the opinion of the Director.

A. 
The permittee shall make every effort to keep the amount of pavement damage to a minimum. Any roadwork/excavation where pavement is removed and/or damaged in the course of performing the work shall be restored by the permittee, at its own expense from curb to curb as well as 10 feet in both directions beyond the area of disturbance unless written authorization is received from the Director/Village Engineer. Additionally, any pavement work resulting in damage beyond the limits of the pavement (e.g., lawns, sidewalks, shrubs, gardens, etc.) shall similarly be restored by the permittee.
B. 
If the restoration results in any roadway patch within eight feet of any other existing patch or newly created patch, the patches shall be combined into a single patch.
C. 
Any roadway restoration that obscures or otherwise disturbs pavement markings, including, but not limited to, stop lines, crosswalks, lane marking, or shoulder striping, shall require the repainting or repair of such markings as per Village specifications.
D. 
Upon completion of the restoration the permittee shall notify the Director/Village Engineer, in writing, that the restoration has been completed and the date of completion. The permittee shall, and has the duty and responsibility to maintain the replacement area for six months after completion. Upon notice by the Director/Village Engineer within the six-month period, the permittee, at its expense, shall immediately make such repairs and take protective measures as directed by the Director/Village Engineer.
E. 
In any case where the permittee fails to timely and properly maintain the area restored, the Director/Village Engineer pursuant to §§ 229-10 and 229-52 may cause the work to be done by the Village's own forces or by contract and the expenses incurred shall be paid by the permittee and, if not timely paid, the expenses shall be deducted from the deposit.
F. 
Any road plate placed on a roadway within the Village shall have nonskid coating and be marked to identify the responsible contractor’s name. All plates shall be ramped and pinned to prevent plates from moving and rattling, and bridging shall be used where necessary to prevent any noise from passing vehicles.
G. 
During the period from December 1 through March 30 of any year, any road plate in use shall be recessed flush with the surrounding roadway. The permittee shall be responsible, until the end of the period of maintenance, to maintain any temporary or permanent restoration, and shall, within 24 hours of notice from the Village, patch any potholes or other defects that have developed.
A. 
Cutback requirement generally. Before proceeding with pavement resurfacing, the existing concrete pavement shall be neatly cut back a distance of not less than 18 inches beyond the edges of the excavation, care being taken not to remove any existing steel reinforcement. Such distance shall not be reduced without prior approval of the Director and may be increased as provided hereunder.
B. 
Additional cutback. Where the existing pavement has been undermined by the excavation or by any work connected therewith, or where spalled or scaled surface areas of existing pavement adjoin the area to be resurfaced, the permittee shall remove additional pavement beyond the distance stated hereinabove, as ordered by the Director. In the event that any portion of the proposed concrete resurfacing, as finally determined by the Director as provided hereinabove, is nearer than six feet from a joint, then such removal shall be extended to the joint. The smallest horizontal dimension of the concrete resurfacing shall be not less than six feet.
C. 
Disturbance of subgrade. None of the subgrade exposed as provided in this section shall be disturbed in any way except when, in the opinion of the Director, such subgrade is unstable, in which case the unstable material shall be removed as ordered, and replaced with approved stable material in layers not to exceed six inches, each layer being thoroughly compacted and tamped.
D. 
Tooling of edges. The upper edges of the existing concrete pavement shall be uniformly plumbed and tooled for a depth not to exceed one inch, the remaining depth being left with straight but rough edges.
E. 
Reinforcement. Reinforcement, consisting of deformed steel bars, equivalent to those in place shall be placed two inches above the subgrade and shall be adequately tied in with the existing reinforcement. In the event that there is no existing reinforcement, bar size will be determined by the Director.
F. 
Washing, painting of edges. The edges of the existing concrete pavement shall be thoroughly washed, wire brushed, dampened and painted with a 1:1 neat cement coating immediately previous to the placing of the new concrete resurfacing.
G. 
Preparation of new cement. The concrete shall be proportioned, mixed, placed, finished and cured as ordered. The Director may, in the latter's discretion, require the use of an approved high early-strength cement placed under approved methods. The use of admixtures and work in freezing weather will be allowed only with the Director's prior approval and as directed.
H. 
Joints. Approved joints shall be installed where directed.
I. 
Reopening to traffic. The resurfaced area shall not be opened to traffic until so ordered by the Director.
Prior to the replacement of bituminous pavements which have been removed pursuant to a permit required by § 229-25, the subgrade shall be properly prepared and a reinforced concrete foundation of required thickness and proportions shall be placed thereon, all in accordance with the requirements for concrete pavements outlined in § 229-47. The existing bituminous pavement shall then be neatly cut back a distance of not less than six inches from the edges of the new concrete foundation. The entire foundation so exposed shall be thoroughly cleaned in an acceptable manner and a new bituminous pavement surface of approved type and thickness shall be placed thereon and rolled in an acceptable manner.
In resurfacing existing macadam pavements which have been removed pursuant to a permit required by § 229-25, the permittee shall cut back the existing pavement a distance of not less than one foot beyond the edges of the excavation. Such distance shall not be reduced without prior approval of the Director and may be increased by the Director if the existing pavement has been undermined by the excavation or by any work connected therewith. The smallest horizontal dimensions shall be not less than six feet.
Any surfaces other than concrete, bituminous or macadam disturbed by reason of the work performed under the permit required by § 229-25 shall be restored by the permittee as directed by the Director.
The Director may, in his discretion, cause any or all of the work contemplated in this division to be done by the Village's own forces or by contract or otherwise, in which ease the Village shall be reimbursed for any expense incurred thereby in accordance with the provisions of § 229-10 of this chapter, and the permittee shall have no claim against the Village for loss of anticipated profits or for any other losses by reason thereof.
