in effect

Sec. 49-550.19. - Number of express mail drop boxes allowed. The number of express mail drop boxes placed within the right-of-way shall be in accordance with the following provisions: (1) No express mail drop box shall be placed in an area that would cause a violation of the applicable public safety criteria outlined in section 49-550.17 or where the available space for express mail drop boxes has been exhausted. (2) Express mail drop box applications shall be processed in the order received with the first received application receiving the first priority. Where express mail drop boxes are in place at the time this division is enacted or where the manager receives applications simultaneously, the manager will use the following in determining which express mail drop box will be permitted at any location. (a) An express mail drop box that is in place and properly permitted will have priority to its location if the location meets the criteria established in this division. If an express mail drop box, which is in place, and properly permitted, must be moved it shall be allowed to relocate to the nearest location which complies with all of the provision of this division and is acceptable the permittee. No additional permit fee shall be charged for said relocation. (b) If a company has one express mail drop box located at a location it may only be permitted a second express mail drop box after all other companies have been permitted. (c) If a company requests a permit at a location where it has no permitted express mail drop boxes but there are two or more permitted express mail drop boxes for another company, the company with multiple express mail drop boxes must remove as many express mail drop boxes as necessary to allow for the placement of the new express mail drop box, provided that no publication shall be required to remove all of its permitted express mail drop boxes from a location. (d) If the number of express mail drop boxes at a location must be reduced for any reason, the last permitted express mail drop boxes shall be the first to be removed, and so on, with the first permitted the last to be removed. Any newsrack so removed shall be re-permitted at the nearest available location acceptable to the permittee without the imposition of a permit fee. (e) For purposes of this subparagraph (e) "location" means all express mail drop box located within one hundred (100) feet on the same side of the street in the same block. (Ord. No. 282-04, § 1, 5-3-04)
