§ 9.09. Revocable Permits.

Temporary permits for public utilities, revocable at any time at the will of the City Council, may be granted by the City Council by resolution on such terms and conditions as it shall determine, provided that such permits shall in no event be construed to be franchises or amendments to franchises. All said temporary permits shall be subject to the right of the City to make independent audit and examination of accounts at any time and to require reports annually or at more frequent intervals as prescribed by resolution of the City Council. When the City Council deems it in the public interest, such permits may be exclusive.
