§ 13.50.130. Disconnection, construction and assessment.

If, upon the expiration of the thirty-day period, the required underground facilities have not been provided, the county engineer shall proceed to have such work accomplished; provided, however, if the premises are unoccupied and no electric or communications services are being furnished thereto, the county engineer shall, in lieu of providing the required underground facilities, have the authority to order the disconnection and removal of all overhead service wires and associated facilities supplying utility service to the property. Upon completion of the work by or on behalf of the county engineer, he shall file a written report with the board of supervisors setting forth the fact that the required underground facilities have been provided and the cost thereof, together with a legal description of the property against which the cost is to be assessed. The board of supervisors shall then set a time and place for hearing protests against the assessment of the cost of such work upon the premises, not less than ten days thereafter.
