(d) A registrant may cancel a registration upon written notice to the director stating that it will no longer place or maintain any communications facilities within the public rights-of-way and will no longer need to obtain permits to perform work in public rights-of-way. A registrant shall not cancel a registration if the registrant continues to place or maintain any communications facilities in any public rights-of-way.
(e) Registration does not in and of itself establish a right to place or maintain or priority for the placement or maintenance of a communications facility in public rights-of-way within the city but shall establish for the Registrant a right to apply for a permit. Registrations are expressly subject to any future amendment to or replacement of this article and further subject to any additional city ordinances, as well as any state or federal laws that may be enacted. In accordance with applicable codes, a permit may be required for a communications services provider that desires to place or maintain a communications facility in public rights-of-way. A registration shall be a condition of obtaining a permit. Notwithstanding a registration, permitting requirements shall apply. A permit may be obtained by or on behalf of a registrant having a registration if all permitting requirements are met.
(f) A communications services provider with an existing communications facility in the public rights-of-way of the city has 60 days from the effective date of this article to comply with the registration requirements of this article.
