A. Within ten days after the effective date of a resolution adopted pursuant to Section 12.32.040, the city clerk shall notify all affected utilities and all persons owning real property within the district created by said resolution of the adoption thereof. Said city clerk shall further notify said affected property owners of the necessity that should they or any person occupying such property desire to continue to receive electrical, communication, or similar or associated service, they or such occupant must provide all required facility changes in accordance with the rules and regulations of the commission on their premises necessary for them to receive such service from the new underground lines of the utilities involved. Notification shall be made by mailing a copy of said resolution to the affected utilities and property owners as such are shown on the last equalized assessment roll.

B. Affected utilities shall advise its customers of its underground conversion within a reasonable time, not less than thirty days, prior to the date when said utility expects to provide underground service to the customers’ premises. The utility shall contact their customers directly advising them that the work will be accomplished in accordance with their rules and regulations on file with the commission; indicating the approximate date when their work will commence; and stating the final date as established by resolution by which the premises must be prepared to receive underground service. Failure of any utility to so advise its customers shall not affect the jurisdiction of the city to compel the removal of poles, overhead wires and associated overhead structures.
