Common use of Location Other Regulations Clause in Contracts

Location Other Regulations. A. Location of Facilities. Electric Facilities shall be located, constructed and maintained so as not to interfere with the safety and convenience of ordinary travel along and over Public Ways and so as not to disrupt normal operation of any City Utility System previously installed therein. Electric Facilities shall be located on Public Grounds as determined by the City. Cooperative’s construction, reconstruction, operation, repair, maintenance and location of Electric Facilities shall be subject to permits if required by separate ordinance and to other reasonable regulations of the City to the extent not inconsistent with the terms of this franchise agreement. Cooperative may abandon underground Electric Facilities in place, provided at the City’s request, Cooperative will remove abandoned metal or concrete encased conduit interfering with a City improvement project, but only to the extent such conduit is uncovered by excavation as part of the City improvement project. B. Field Locations. Cooperative shall provide field locations for its underground Electric Facilities within City consistent with the requirements of Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 216D. C. Street Openings. Cooperative shall not open or disturb any Public Ground or Public Way for any purpose without first having obtained a permit from the City, if required by a separate ordinance, for which the City may impose a reasonable fee. Permit conditions imposed on Cooperative shall not be more burdensome than those imposed on other utilities for similar facilities or work. Cooperative may, however, open and disturb any Public Ground or Public Way without permission from the City where an emergency exists requiring the immediate repair of Electric Facilities. In such event Cooperative shall notify the City by telephone to the office designated by the City as soon as practicable. Not later than the second working day thereafter, Cooperative shall obtain any required permits and pay any required fees.
