§ 16.38.420. Relocation of facilities—Regulations generally.
Latest version.
If any of the facilities heretofore or hereafter erected, constructed, installed or
maintained by the grantee pursuant to the franchise on, along, upon, over, in, under
or across any highway are located in a manner which prevents or interferes with the
change of grade, traffic needs, operation, maintenance, improvement, repair, construction,
reconstruction, widening, alteration or relocation of the highway, the grantee shall
relocate permanently or temporarily any such facility at no expense to the county,
city or public entity upon receipt of a written request from the road commissioner
to do so, and shall commence such work on or before the date specified in such written
request, which date shall be not less than 30 days from receipt of such written request,
and thereafter diligently prosecute such work to completion; provided, however, if
such highway is subsequently constituted a state highway, thereafter and so long as
such highway remains a state highway, no such change of location shall be required
for a temporary purpose.
