13.12.010 - STREET OBSTRUCTION PERMIT REQUIRED
A. A street obstruction permit, issued by the public works department on written application, is required for all work conducted in the City's alley or street rights-of-way, whether developed or undeveloped, in all cases except those projects governed by a written contract between the City and the person conducting the work, or activities covered by a right-of-way use permit. B. Such a permit shall be required whether or not any prior improvement of the right-of-way has been made and the term "work" shall be liberally construed to include any kind of activity within the right-of-way, exclusive of that covered by Section 13.14.010, the movement of vehicles and pedestrians, and work exempted by the Director of Public Works. C. The Director of Public Works has the authority to waive the permit requirement whenever the scope of work is small, or the work is being done adjacent to the residence of the person doing the work.
