Identify franchise status and accepted restoration security

Development Engineering coordinates franchise gas/electric/fiber work, while the current ROW page separately directs non-franchise and small-wireless applicants to Chapter 122. Its non-franchise rules do not exempt franchise utilities from every other ROW requirement; identify the actual City-permitted installation and applicable Chapter 151 process.

Posted §122.08 requires non-franchise applicants to post restoration security before permitting, with a SUDAS-conforming surety bond and amount from the adopted schedule or a larger Engineer-assigned amount. It allows an annual bond or other security for numerous concurrent utility projects only at the Engineer's discretion. Obtain the actual form/sum and approved scope rather than assuming an annual option or guessing an unread schedule amount.

Prepare the route and keep the issued packet with the crew

The City asks for location/property/easement lines, utility type/size/depth, installation method, existing facilities and a detailed plan; anticipated traffic, sidewalk or trail closures need a reviewed traffic-control plan. Allow the City's stated minimum five-business-day application review, not an instant permit based on provider issuance.

Purchase Now opens Propeller; the option displays no fixed amount or term. Have the City and issuer match the actual utility/principal/recipient, instrument, amount and dates, arrange execution/accepted filing and separate insurance, then obtain the approved permit packet and keep it available to the on-site crew.

The linked general conditions separately require at least seven days' written notice to affected/adjoining owners with a copy to Engineering, and at least 48-hour Engineering notice before work. New buried cables/conduits use directional bore unless an alternate is approved. Follow actual changed-plan, restoration and inspection conditions; do not treat the applicant's work duties as a quoted bond duration or automatic release.
