EXCAVATING IN TOWN RIGHT-OF-WAY
REQUIRES PERMIT
Section 17-47 of the Revised Ordinances
for the Town of North Kingstown states that: 'No person shall excavate or dig
into any portion of any of the public highways of the town without having first
obtained the special permit mentioned in section 17-48'.
Per Sec. 17-48, the director
of public works may at any time issue a special permit (Excavation Permit)
authorizing any person to excavate or dig into the public highways of the town
and requires that a bond of not less than One Thousand Dollars ($1,000.00) be
posted prior to the issuance of any such permit.
Written applications for Excavation
Permits are to be filed with the Engineering Division which gives preliminary
approval, sets the bond amount, and sets the inspection costs for the requested
excavation. The application is then forwarded to the Director for his
approval and the applicant is notified when approved. The permit is then
issued once the inspection costs are paid and the bond is placed on file with
the Town.
