City code section
- A. Permits for structural driveways will be issued only to the owner of the property abutting the half of the street area in which the structural driveway is proposed to be built. The burdens and benefits of any such permit will run with the property abutting the half of the street area in which the structural driveway is proposed to be built. Upon sale or disposition of the property, the permit will automatically transfer to any new owner of the property, except when the permit specifically prohibits such transfer.
- B. The abutting property owner will be liable to any person who is injured or otherwise suffers damage by reason of the property owners use of the street area. Furthermore, the abutting property owners will be liable to the City for any judgment or expense incurred or paid by the City by reason of the existence of a structural driveway in the street area.
- C. This permit will be for the use of the street area only, and will not exempt the permittees from obtaining any license or permit required by Portland City Code or Ordinances for any act to be performed under this permit, nor will this permit waive the provisions of Portland City Code, an ordinance, or the City Charter except as stated in this Chapter.
- D. The conditions in a permit for a structural driveway are burdens upon the abutting property, which will run with the land, and the permit must be recorded with the Multnomah County Records Division, and the cost of recording must be paid by the applicant.
