Result AN ORDINANCE
An ordinance amending Section 1193 of the Revised Ordi-
nances of Salt Lake City of 1913, relating to streets.
Be it ordained by the Board of Commissioners of Salt
Lake City, Utah:
SECTION 1. That Section 1193 of the Revised Ordinances
of Salt Lake City of 1913, relating to Streets, be, and the
same is hereby amended so as to read as follows:
SECTION 1193. PERMITS. APPLICATIONS, BONDS, PEES.
No permit for any street excavation shall be issued until
written application therefor has been made to the super-
visor of streets and irrigation, signed by the party
making the excavation, or by the party at whose instance
it is to be made; nor until the applicant has filed with
the supervisor of streets and irrigation a bond of indem-
nity to the city, with sureties to be approved by the
Board of Commissioners, conditioned that the person
making the excavation will erect and maintain about said
excavation, and until the street is restored to its normal
condition, sufficient guards, signals, barricades and
lights, to prevent accident, and will, as soon as may be
after the completion of said work, restore said street to
the same condition in which it existed prior to said
excavation, and will remove rocks, dirt and rubbish from
: -
the street, and will save the city harmless from any and
all claims, liabilities, demands or damages, for any and
all injuries to person or property arising in any manner
out of or by reason of any such excavation. Such bond
shall be in the sum of five thousand dollars, for excava-
tions in all streets; provided, however, that whenever
paving or macadam, dirt or rock is removed in the process
of any street excavation, such paving or macadam, dirt or
rock must be replaced under the direction and to the satis-
faction of the supervisor of streets and irrigation, and
at the expense of the party making the excavation; and,
provided further, that any person operating in or using
any of the streets under a franchise, or any person who in
the pursuit of his regular calling, has frequent occasion
to open or make excavations in the public streets, may file
a bond with corporate surety in the sum of ten thousand
dollars, conditioned as above, to cover all excavations
made for a period of two years from the date of filing, but
permits for all excavations, except for the replacement of
street railway rails and ties in unpaved streets, must be
applied for and issued before it shall be lawful to make
any such excavations; provided further, that in excavating
through asphalt or cement, or beneath stone blocks, the
excavation shall be cut perpendicularly at the side and
ends from the surface, the full length and width of all
excavations to the necessary depth; on top of the back-
filling there shall be placed a base of stone or concrete,
as the case may be, uniform in construction and in depth
with the base of said pavement, and on top thereof shall
be placed a sand joint one-half inch in thickness, and the
balance of said excavation filled with cement mortar in the
proportion of one part cement to two parts sand, flush with:.
the pavement, all of such construction conforming in charac-
ter of materials and workmanship with the city's specifica-
tions for street paving, and in all cases, whether the
excavation is made through asphalt or otherwise, in back-
filling the material used for that purpose shall be thorough-
ly sprinkled and tamped, or a sufficient quantity of water
used to properly settle the material so used; and after
completing an excavation and back-filling, all dirt, rocks
and rubbish shall be removed from the street; provided
further, that failure on the part of any person to comply
with any of the provisions of this chapter, shall be a
sufficient reason for the supervisor of streets and irriga-
tion refusing a permit to excavate in the streets of this
city; provided further, that no excavation shall be per-
mitted to remain open in any street of the city for a
longer period than ten days. If this provision is violated
the supervisor of streets and irrigation may fill any such
excavation at the expense of the person making the same;
provided further, that the supervisor of streets and irri-
gation shall charge and collect, upon issuing any permit,
the following fees and charges, to-wit:
For excavating in any cement sidewalk, for the
first eight square feet or part thereof - - - - $ 2.00

first eleven square feet or part thereof- - - - 5.00
For each additional square foot or part thereof- - - .45

For inspecting work when there is no asphalt or
macadam pavement, for each one hundred linear
feet or portion thereof 2.00

after its passage.
