  • The following are required pursuant to this division:

    (1)

    In general all forms shall be smooth. The work shall be done in a workmanlike manner, giving straight lines where required, true planes and a smooth finish, properly brushed to remove trowel marks and otherwise satisfactory to the director.

    (2)

    When the work is completed all curbs shall have earth thoroughly filled in and tamped against the back. All rubbish, surplus excavated material, forms and other materials shall be removed and the work left in a neat and orderly manner.

    (3)

    In order that sidewalks fulfill the condition of being satisfactory to the director, no obstruction shall project above or be left below the surface, such as meter boxes, cutoff valves, etc. The practice of leaving the open end of a tile or pipe in the walk to permit access to cutoff valves will not be permitted, but all such must be provided with proper castings around which the walk shall be neatly finished. If a meter box casting cannot be adjusted to proper grade, the city water department shall be notified. Whenever there is room for a meter outside of the walk, it shall not be concreted in, but shall be moved out of the way of the walk.

    (4)

    If at any time any of the materials to be used in or for the construction of the work covered by this division does not meet or fulfill all requirements of this division, it shall be removed from the site of construction upon being notified of the failure to meet requirements.

    (5)

    All defective work caused either by failure of material or workmanship shall be torn out and replaced with new construction to meet the requirements of this division and the director.
