The Director shall reasonably determine the appropriate method of providing such information to the City. Failure to provide prompt and accurate information on the Service Laterals installed may result in the revocation of the permit issued for the work or for future permits to the offending Permittee or its subcontractors. (Ord. 1209, 8-24-1998); (Ord. 1333, 03-13-2006) 707.23: LOCATION OF FACILITIES: A. Undergrounding: to the extent not inconsistent with applicable law or regulation, or unless otherwise permitted by an existing franchise or Minnesota Statutes section 21613.34, or unless existing aboveground facilities are repaired or replaced, new construction and the installation of new facilities and replacement of old underground facilities shall be done underground or contained within buildings or other structures in conformity with applicable codes, if required by the Director. B. Corridors: The Director may assign specific corridors within the right of way, or any particular segment thereof as may be necessary, for each type of equipment that is or; pursuant to current technology, the Director expects will someday be located within the right of way. All excavation, obstruction, or other permits issued by the Director involving the installation or replacement of facilities shall designate the proper corridor for the facilities at issue. Any registrant who has facilities in the right of way in a position at variance with the corridors established by the Director shall, no later than at the time of the next reconstruction or excavation of the area where the facilities are located, move the facilities to the assigned position within the right of way, unless this requirement is waived by the Director for good cause shown, upon consideration of such factors as the remaining economic life of the facilities, public safety, customer service needs and hardship to the registrant. C. Nuisance: One year after the passage of this Chapter, any facilities found in a right of way that has not been registered shall be deemed to be a nuisance. The City may exercise any remedies or rights it has at law or in equity, including, but not limited to, abating the nuisance or taking possession of the facilities and restoring the right of way to a useable condition. D. Limitation of Space: to protect health, safety, and welfare or when necessary to protect the right of way and its current use, the Director shall have the power to prohibit or limit the placement of new or additional facilities within the right of way. In making such decisions, the Director shall strive to the extent possible to accommodate all existing and potential users of the right of way, but shall be guided primarily by considerations of the public interest, the public's needs for the particular utility service, the condition of the right of way, the time of year with respect to essential utilities, the protection of existing facilities in the right of way, and future City plans for public improvements and development projects which have been determined to be in the public interest. (Ord. 1209,8-24-1998) 707.24: RELOCATION OF FACILITIES: A registrant must promptly and at its own expense, with due regard for seasonal working conditions, permanently remove and relocate its facilities in the right of way whenever the Director for good cause requests such removal and relocation, and shall restore the right of way to the same condition it was in prior to said removal or relocation. The Director may make such request to prevent interference by the company's equipment or facilities with: a) a present or future City use of the right of way, b) a public improvement undertaken by the
