This policy shall not apply to any cable installed or operated by the holder of any franchise granted by the City for telephone or cable communications purposes wherein general telephone service or communication, including television, is provided to the inhabitants of the City. SECTION B—APPLICATION FOR PERMIT (i) Application for such permit shall be made to the Permits and Inspections Division of the Planning Department, and such application shall be in writing, stating specifically the space desired, its length, breadth and depth, the streets, alleys, sidewalks or other public space intended to be used, the use intended to be made thereof, a description of the users if the facility is not to be available to the general public, a description of all users if any conduit is to be shared by a number of users, and the carrying capacity and diameter of the cable or other facilities being installed. In addition thereto, the Permits and Inspections Division or the Public Works Department may request such additional information as they deem reasonably appropriate for their determination or that of the City Council with reference to such application. All such applications a request for which there is no agreement in effect conforming to this policy and these specifications shall be referred to the City Council for an agreement to be approved by Resolution prior to the granting of any permit. Other permits (for which such an Agreement is in Exhibit A Page 1 of 7 effect) may be granted by the Permits and Inspections Division with the approval of the Public Works Department. (ii) Following initial application and discussions with the Public Works Department concerning the placement of such cable and its appurtenances, the applicant shall supply accurate drawings produced to a scale of one inch equaling fifty feet. Such plans must show typical sections for pavement cuts and crossings, with specific details for conflicts with other utility structures and conduits. (iii) Thirty days after completion of the work, as-built construction drawings, signed and certified by a licensed professional engineer, must also be submitted to the Public Works, Department on microfilm aperture cards. Updated route maps and required drawings must be provided to the Public Works Department whenever a change is made to the approved cable placement. SECTION C—CONSTRUCTION SPECIFICATIONS (i) The work shall be constructed in accordance with plans and specifications approved by the Public Works Department, which approval shall be granted in a competitively neutral and non-discriminatory manner. All excavations in public streets shall comply with Article II of Chapter 34 of the Omaha Municipal Code, except that the provisions concerning bonds contained within this division shall control. Where the cable is located beneath the pavement in all major traffic streets and arterial streets, the minimum depth from the top of the cable to the surface of the ground shall be thirty inches. Cable buried beneath residential streets shall have a minimum depth of twenty-four inches. In no instances shall cable be buried to a depth of less than twenty-four inches. Pull boxes and other items shallower than the depth above specified shall be clearly shown on the completed plans covering the installation work. (ii) All land surfaces and all pavement shall be restored to the same or similar conditions existing prior to the Permittee's construction, and shall comply with Article II of Chapter 34 of the Omaha Municipal Code. In addition thereto, all established lawns which have Exhibit A Page 2 of 7 been disturbed by the installation shall be resodded and all other earth surfaces shall be seeded unless otherwise specified in the permit. (iii) All cable buried beneath public streets must be encased in a protective sheath strong enough to avoid damage from the first accidental contact with hand tools. All pavement cuts must be completed in accord with current City Ordinances and specifications. SECTION D—BOND,INSURANCE AND PUBLIC LIABILITY (i) In lieu of the per block bond requirements set forth in Section D(i) of the attached Exhibit"A," Permittee shall file with the City a continuing bond in the amount of Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) to cover all construction efforts during the term of this Agreement or until Permittee is no longer installing a portion of its telecommunications facilities within the City, whichever is sooner. All bonds and sureties shall be approved by the City before such permit becomes effective. All bonds shall be conditioned that the person to whom such permit shall be issued, all appropriate heirs, successors and assigns, shall save and keep the City free and harmless from any and all loss or damages or claims for damages arising from or out of the use of the space therein mentioned (except those arising from the City's gross negligence or intentional misconduct), and for he maintenance of the street, alley, sidewalk, or other public ground in such condition that the street, alley, sidewalk, or other public ground shall at all times after the completion of the work be safe for public use; for the full and complete protection of the City against any and all litigation growing out of the granting of such permit or anything done under such permit(except to the extent previously specified), and for the removal of any cable or other facility buried by the permittee to the extent that the same is required by the City, at the sole expense of the permittee or its appropriate heirs, successors or assigns; for the faithful performance and observance of all of the terms and conditions of this division and the conditions and provisions of Article II of Chapter 34 of the Omaha Municipal Code; and such bond shall also be conditioned for the prompt and full payment of the compensation required by this division, or by any other Ordinance, during the period said permit shall be outstanding. Following the issuance of such permit, and as long as the use continues in such public space, the Exhibit A Page 3 of 7 owners of the permitted facility from time to time shall also be responsible to the City for the performance of all of the conditions of the bond above described. Whenever the City shall be of the opinion that the surety on such bond given for such permit issued hereunder has become insufficient and shall so declare in writing sent by regular U.S. Mail to the applicant, a new bond for such permit shall thereupon be filed with a new surety to be approved by the City. (ii) In addition to the bond, the applicant shall at all times have in full force and effect a policy of liability insurance in the minimum amount of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) for the injury or death of any number of persons per occurrence, and One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) for property damage per occurrence. Such coverage shall name the City of Omaha as an additional insured, as its interests may appear, for all acts and omissions of Permittee, its agents and contractors arising out of or in any way connected with the permit and their use and occupation of the public right-of-way. All such policies and certificates of insurance shall be issued by companies authorized to do business in the State of Nebraska and shall be approved by the City of Omaha Law Department prior to the commencement of such use and provide that any such policy shall not be cancelled until thirty (30) days' written notice of such cancellation shall have been filed with the City Clerk. Any termination or lapse of such insurance will automatically revoke any permit issued pursuant to this division. SECTION E—INTERFERENCE WITH OTHER. PUBLIC. FACILITIES, RELOCATION,IDENTIFICATION OF COMMUNICATIONS CABLE (i) No person, whether permitted under this division or otherwise, shall ever use the space under any street, alley, sidewalk, or public ground in such manner as to interfere with any traffic control or energy cable, sewer, gas or water conduit, or any other public facilities or utilities lawfully in such street, alley, sidewalk, or other public space unless by consent of the City specially granted in the permit. Whenever any applicant or permittee under this division is given permission to relocate any existing public facility, such relocation shall be entirely at the cost and expense of the applicant or permittee. All such relocation work shall be subject to the Exhibit A Page 4 of 7 control of the City of Omaha or other public entity controlling such public facility, and all such work shall be done promptly in accordance with the directions of the Public Works Department so as to minimize the interruption of the public's use of such facilities. (ii) All work undertaken by the applicant or permittee which requires inspection by the City shall be performed subject to the requirement that the City be fully reimbursed for its reasonable and documented inspection costs whether, the same are part of the initial installation or the relocation of either the permittee's facilities or those belonging to the City or any other utility service. (iii) In addition thereto, all permits governed by these specifications are granted subject to the requirement that whenever any work is initiated by the City of Omaha, the State of Nebraska, Douglas County, the Omaha Public Power District or the Metropolitan Utilities District, or any other publicly owned body, the facilities of the applicant must be relocated within a reasonable time, not to exceed sixty (60) days from written demand for the same, in order to reasonably accommodate such public use. If the permittee fails to undertake or cause the relocation of its facility within a reasonable time, then the City of Omaha retains the right to relocate or allow relocation of the cable and other appurtenant facilities and to assess and collect the reasonable and documented cost from the permittee or any other owner of the facility if the same fail to relocate the cable in a timely manner. (iv) The permittee shall, at its own cost, maintain a local agent available on a twenty- four hour per day, seven day per week basis, to provide to the City, any public entity, or any other persons, permitted to do work in the street right-of-way, detailed and accurate information concerning the location, whether in plan, section or profile, or any combination of the same, of the permittee's cable, appurtenances or other facilities. This requirement can be satisfied by the permittee's utilization of a local utility locating service maintained by others, or this provision may be satisfied by any other local, competent agency. (v) The permittee, its appropriate heirs, successors and assigns, shall at all times remain responsible for injuries to its cable, its appurtenances and other facilities injured by any Exhibit A Page 5 of 7 1 party and due to any inaccuracies in the information given with respect to such facility's location. The City of Omaha, and all other parties working on public property, shall be responsible for injuries to the permittee's facilities only to the extent that such injuries result from the intentional damage or willful disregard for the facilities of the permittee. The provision of the Permittee of accurate information with regard to the location of its telecommunications facilities creates a rebuttal presumption that damage to such facilities was intentional or the result of willful disregard thereof. SECTION F—,REVOCATION OF PERMIT; REMOVAL OF FACILITIES (i) A permit issued under this division may be revoked by Resolution of the City Council upon a finding by the Council of such fact and giving of thirty (30) days' written notice to such person by the City Clerk, for the following reasons: a) Failure of the permittee to pay the compensation required within thirty (30) days after the payment due date; b) Failure or neglect of the permittee to comply with the material provisions of these specifications or any provision of the Omaha Municipal Code applicable to the permit and the use and occupancy of right-of-way. (ii) Upon revocation of the permit, the permit holder shall forthwith, at the option of the City, either remove or abandon in place the cable and appurtenances for which the permit was granted. All directly buried cable, however, may be abandoned in place at the option of the permit holder. All removals and restoration of the public facilities shall be at the cost of the permittee, and the permittee shall hold the City of Omaha free from any and all encroachments or claims of any type. Such facilities which are not removed by the permission of the City of Omaha shall become the property of the City of Omaha upon the City's certification that the permittee has complied with all requirements of abandonment or cancellation with respect to the specific segment of cable involved. Whenever the permittee has failed or refused to undertake such removal, abandonment and restoration within twelve (12) months after such revocation of Exhibit A Page 6 of 7 any such permit, then the City may cause such work to be done and the cost of such work shall be paid by the permittee and become a lien against the property of the permittee. (iii) Upon a determination by the City Council that the space for which the permit is granted is needed for other public use and that no relocation within the specific right-of-way is an available, reasonable alternative, then the rights under said permit shall be transferred, to the extent possible by the co-operation of the City and the permit holder, to another specific nearby right-of-way. Such relocation work shall be accomplished by the permit holder at its costs within the time frame specified in Section E(iii)hereof. SECTION G—RENTAL FEE FOR SPACE (i) The permittee shall pay to the City an annual rental for the use and occupancy of the space beneath said public street, alley, sidewalk or other public ground occupied by such use, which rental shall be the sum of One Dollar and Eighty Cents ($1.80) per lineal foot of space occupied underneath the public street, alley, sidewalk or other public ground; provided however, that the permittee shall receive credit against such annual rental for all sums paid to the City of Omaha as an occupation tax on communications under the provisions of Article VI of Chapter 19 of the Omaha Municipal Code. (ii) All payments made under the provisions of this division shall be made to the City Finance Department and shall be due and payable on the first day of January of each year; provided, however, if the permit is issued for such space after the first day of January, the amount of the initial payment shall be prorated from the day when such permit is issued to the first day of January of the next year, and payment shall be due and payable on or before the first day of January thereafter. Any such rent shall become delinquent on the first day of January of each year, and such delinquent rent shall draw interest at the rate which is the maximum legal rate of interest chargeable in the State of Nebraska under such circumstances, or at any lesser rate of interest specified, if any, in the permit. 328285.1 Exhibit A Page 7 of 7 ` Gt^ • • .— '_. - - eeo}`/ • •1 ry•''l'.
