All construction, maintenance and operation in connection with such Encroachment, use
and occupancy shall comply and be performed in strict compliance with the Charter,
Ordinance and Codes of the City and in accordance with the directions of the Director of
the Water Department of City, or his duly authorized representative. Prior to the
construction of the Encroachment, Licensee shall submit all plans and specifications to
the Director or his duly authorized representative. Licensee shall not commence
construction of the Encroachment until such approval shall be indicated in writing by the
Director. However, such approval shall not relieve Licensee of responsibility and liability
for concept, design and computation in the preparation of such plans and specifications.
3.
Licensee agrees that City may enter and utilize the referenced areas at any time for the
purpose of installing, repairing, replacing or maintaining improvements to its public
facilities or utilities necessary for the health, safety and welfare of the public for any other
public purpose. City shall bear no responsibility or liability for any damage or disruption
or other adverse consequences resulting from Encroachment installed by Licensee, but
City will make reasonable efforts to minimize such damage. Should it become necessary
to remove the Encroachment to install, repair, replace or maintain improvements to City
public facilities or utilities in the Easement, the Licensee shall remove the Encroachment
at the Licensee's expense. The City shall furnish the Licensee with notice if removal of
the Encroachment is deemed necessary by the Water Department. Licensee agrees that
upon request of City, and within 30 days from the date of such request, to relocate the
Encroachment away from the Easement and to restore the Easement to its original
condition all at the sole cost and expense of Licensee.
4.
The Licensee further agrees that City shall have the absolute right at its discretion to
terminate this license or refuse to allow the Licensee to continue to have the
Encroachment over, under or across the Easement if the City determines that the
Easement is being substantially damaged by the Encroachment, or that the Encroachment
otherwise places an undue burden on the operation of the municipal utility(ies) system or
in the event the Licensee fails to comply with the provisions of this Agreement. City
shall furnish Licensee with notice requiring the removal in a time period as is reasonable
under the circumstances. After receipt of such notice, the Licensee shall thereafter
immediately remove the Encroachment and restore the Easement to the same condition as
existed prior to the installation of the Encroachment. In the event the Licensee fails to
promptly remove the Encroachment and restore the Easement within the time required by
the notice, the City may remove the Encroachment and restore the Easement and assess a
lien on the Property for the costs expended by the City to remove the Encroachment.
