Tampa City Code § 22-192

in effect

Sec. 22-192. - Determining amount of deposit. The amount required to be deposited in such case shall be deposited, in the case of wires or electrical conductors owned or used by the city, with the city engineer, and in case of wires or electrical conductors owned or used by any person or corporation, with such person or corporation. Such amount shall not exceed the estimated actual cost of cutting, raising or making such other disposition as may be necessary of any such wire, cable or electrical conductor, and splicing and replacing any such wire, cable or electrical conductor which it has been necessary to cut or disturb in order to permit the passage of any house or building being removed. Such amount shall be approximated as near as may be in the case of city wires, cables or other electrical conductors by the city engineer. In the case of wires, cables and other electrical conductors owned or used by any person or corporation, such amount shall be approximated by such person or by some duly authorized officer of such corporation. If the amount so deposited is more than sufficient to pay the expense of cutting, raising or making such other dispositions as may be necessary and of replacing and splicing any such wire, cable or other electrical conductor, any amount remaining unexpended shall be forthwith returned to the person who made such deposit. (Ord. No. 89-244, § 2(34-172), 9-28-89)
