A. The Director of Public Works may suspend any permit issued under the provisions of this chapter when reasonably necessary for the public convenience or safety as the result of conflict with:

1. Public construction work being performed under contract;

2. Major public maintenance operations;

3. Emergency requirements of any public agency, or as the result of a public disaster, such as, fire, flood or earthquake.

B. The Director of Public Works shall give the permittee seventy-two hours’ written notice of such suspension and order to clear the public right-of-way; provided, however, that in the case of an emergency, no notice shall be required. In the event of an emergency, or if the permittee fails to clear the public right-of-way as ordered, the Director of Public Works may clear the public right-of-way or cause it to be cleared, and the costs thereof shall be paid by the permittee or other responsible party. Such costs, if not paid upon demand, shall be deducted from the moneys which have been deposited, or shall be paid by the surety company on its bond, if a surety bond has been filed in lieu of the required deposit. (Ord. 4111-NS § 11, 1965)
