A. 
Immediately after backfilling the excavation, the permittee shall place thereon an acceptable temporary resurfacing as provided hereinbelow. 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. 
The temporary resurfacing shall consist of not less than two inches of macadam or approved equal thereto when opening is made in an existing concrete, asphaltic, bituminous or macadam pavement and not less than two inches of three-fourths-inch-diameter stone in all cases, except that where topsoil, seeded areas or sod has been disturbed by the excavation, the permittee shall restore the ground surface to the same condition as existed before the work was begun.
[Amended 1-28-1985]
C. 
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. 
Before proceeding with pavement resurfacing, the existing concrete pavement shall be neatly cut back with an approved concrete cutting saw 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 hereinunder.
[Amended 1-28-1985]
B. 
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. The new cutback line shall be a straight line for the total length of the excavation.
[Amended 1-28-1985]
C. 
In the event that any portion of the proposed concrete resurfacing, as finally determined by the Director as provided hereinabove, is nearer than three feet from the edge of the road, the concrete curbing or the center line of the road, then such removal shall be extended to said point. The smallest dimension of the concrete resurfacing, measured along the center line of road, shall not be less than 10 feet and shall extend the full width of panel.
[Amended 1-28-1985]
D. 
None of the subgrade so exposed 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 four inches, each layer being thoroughly compacted and tamped.
E. 
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.
F. 
Reinforcement, consisting of welded wire mesh not less than 3/8 inch in size, spaced as ordered, shall be placed two inches above the subgrade and shall be adequately tied in with the existing reinforcement, if any.
[Amended 1-28-1985]
G. 
The edges of the existing concrete pavement shall be thoroughly washed, wire brushed, dampened and painted with a one-to-one neat cement coating immediately previous to the placing of the new concrete resurfacing, which is to be a minimum of eight inches thick.
H. 
The concrete shall be proportioned, mixed, placed, finished and cured as ordered. The Director may, in his 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.
I. 
Approved joints shall be installed where directed.
J. 
The resurfaced area shall not be opened to traffic until so ordered by the Director.
[Amended 1-28-1985; 7-17-2023 by L.L. No. 4-2023]
A. 
Prior to the replacement of bituminous pavements, the subgrade shall be properly prepared, using approved stable material, and rolled and compacted in layers not to exceed four inches, to a compaction of 95% of the Modified Proctor Test Density, and shall have a subbase course of not less than six inches of three-fourths-inch-diameter stone of New York State Item 4. Any settlement or defects found within one year of the pavement restoration shall be repaired at the cost of the permittee. Determination of the repair shall be at the discretion of the Director of Public Works or his or her designee. The determination of such a repair shall be based on a visual evaluation of the defect, and may include complete removal of the new pavement, subbase and subgrade.
B. 
All permanent pavement restoration shall be performed to the limits shown on the "City of Peekskill - Minimum Pavement Restoration Limits" diagram, as approved by the City of Peekskill Common Council, and included in the "City of Peekskill - Technical Specifications Concrete Sidewalk & Curb" specifications.

The Director may, in his discretion, cause any or all of the work contemplated in this article to be done by the City's own forces or by contract or otherwise, in which case, the City shall be reimbursed for any expense incurred thereby in accordance with the provisions of Article I, § 505-3, of this Part 1, and the permittee shall have no claim against the City of loss of anticipated profits or for any other losses by reason thereof. The Director may also, in his or her discretion, enter into a mutually agreed upon Joint Paving Agreement, for the logistical and financial benefit of the City of Peekskill, whereby the City and the permittee enter into an agreement in which the City shall perform restoration repairs in the future, after which the permittee shall provide reimbursement to the City for all costs incurred. Logistical and financial benefits to the City may be based on future coordination of utility replacement in the particular roadway, the overall condition of the entire roadway and the next anticipated date of paving the roadway, and other benefits to the City.
