In those areas within the city where cable television, telephone or electrical facilities
are currently placed underground, all cable system facilities shall remain or be placed
underground. In areas where either telephone or electric utility facilities are above
ground at the time of installation, grantee may install its cable system facilities
above ground, provided that at such time as both electric and telephone utility facilities
are placed underground, grantee shall likewise place its cable system facilities underground
without cost to the city. Nothing contained in this section shall require a grantee
to construct, operate and maintain underground any ground-mounted appurtenances, except
that grantee shall take steps to minimize the number and visual impact of such facilities.
If the grantor reimburses any utility for such relocation, grantee shall be similarly
reimbursed. This section shall not prevent the city or any of its agencies or joint
agencies from requiring the installation or relocation of cable services facilities
underground pursuant to a separate ordinance or regulation or requirement imposed
in accordance with the exercise of the general police power or regulatory function
of such agency or point agency.
