10-7-27. Street railway companies to restore streets.
Every street railway company shall at its own expense restore the pavement, including the
foundation thereof, of every street disturbed by it in the construction, reconstruction, removal or
repair of its tracks, to the same condition as before the disturbance thereof, to the satisfaction of
the governing body having charge of such street. The obligation imposed hereby shall, in cities
other than cities of the first class, be in lieu and substitution of any and all other obligations of any
such company to pave, repave or repair any street, or to pay any part of the cost thereof, and may
be enforced in the same manner as similar obligations are or may be enforced under the laws of
this state. Nothing herein contained shall be considered to relieve any such company from the
repayment of any money which has heretofore been advanced or expended by any city for any
paving heretofore done under or by virtue of a specific contract or agreement made and entered
into between the board of commissioners or the city council of any city and such company
providing for the repayment thereof, but the obligation for such repayment shall be and remain
enforceable as if this section had not been passed.
