§ 16-8. Construction requirements.

A. 

Restoration. In the event that the company or its agents shall disturb any pavement, street surfaces, sidewalks, driveways, lawns or other surfaces in the natural topography, the company shall, at its sole expense, restore and replace such places or things so disturbed in as good condition as existed prior to the commencement of said work.

B. 

Relocation. If at any time during the period of this consent the Borough shall alter or change the grade of any street, alley or other way or place, the company, upon reasonable notice by the Borough, shall remove, relay and relocate its equipment, at the expense of the company.

C. 

Temporary removal of cables. The company shall temporarily move or remove appropriate parts of its facilities to allow the moving of buildings, machinery or other similar circumstances. The expense for the movement or removal of such facilities shall be borne by the party requesting such action, except when requested by the Borough, in which case the company shall bear the cost.

D. 

Removal or trimming of trees. During the exercise of its rights and privileges under this franchise, the company shall have the authority to trim trees upon and overhanging streets, alleys, sidewalks, and public places of the Borough so as to prevent the branches of such trees from coming in contact with the wires and cables of the company. Such trimming shall be only to the extent necessary to maintain proper clearance for the company's facilities, and no trees shall be trimmed, removed or destroyed without the prior consent of the Borough.
