Newly constructed or resurfaced streets shall be termed “prohibition streets” with this chapter. Permission to excavate in prohibition streets will not be granted for five years following after the completion of street overlays. An overlay is at least one-half-inch thick asphalt layer. For those streets with chip seal, slurry seal coating, or micro paving with less than one-half-inch of new pavement, the prohibition period shall be three years. Utilities shall plan well enough in advance to determine alternate methods for making necessary repairs to avoid excavating in newly resurfaced public streets. (Ord. 2023-13 § 1 (Exh. A), 2023)
