A. Before issuing a street obstruction permit, the plans for the proposed work must be approved by the department of public works.

B. Plans, or for minor work a sketch, shall be submitted in a format satisfactory to the director of public works. Wherever applicable, standard plans adopted by the city or included in the current edition of the APWA standard specifications, shall be used.

C. Where a plan check conducted pursuant to this section costs the city more than the current permit fee, the applicant must pay the excess costs. These costs will include personnel costs at rates determined by the director of public works, direct costs of outside consultants, and other direct reasonable expenses. [Ord. 9157 § 4, 1983].
