4.10.20 Work Done Without a Permit Subdivision 1. Emergency Situations. Each registrant shall immediately notify the City or the City's designee of any event regarding its equipment which it considers to be an emergency. The registrant may proceed to take whatever actions are necessary in order to respond to the emergency. Within five (5) business days after the occurrence of the emergency, the registrant shall apply for the necessary permits, pay the fees associated therewith and fulfill the rest of the requirements necessary to bring itself into compliance with this Section for the actions it took in response to the Emergency. In the event that the City becomes aware of an emergency, regarding a registrant's equipment, the City may attempt to contact the local representative of each registrant affected, or potentially affected, by the emergency. Should the contacts for the registrant be unavailable or fail to respond to the request, the City may take whatever action it deems necessary in order to respond to the emergency, the cost of which shall be borne by the registrant whose equipment occasioned the emergency. Subd. 2. Non-Emergency Situations. Except in the case of an emergency, any person who, without first having obtained the necessary permit, obstructs or evacuates a right-of-way must subsequently obtain a permit pay double the normal fee for said permit, pay double all other fees required by City ordinance, including, but not limited to, criminal fines and penalties, and deposit with the City the fees necessary to correct any damage to the right-of-way and comply with all of the requirements of this Section. That Person shall be immediately placed in a probationary status and must conform to all of the additional restrictions associated with that status. 4.10.21 Supplementary Notification.
