     3    § 87. Construction through villages, towns and  cities.  No  new  pipe
     4  line shall be constructed into or through any incorporated village, town
     5  or city in this state, unless authorized by a resolution prescribing the
     6  route, manner of construction and terms upon which granted, adopted at a
     7  regular  meeting of the board of trustees of the village, town board, or
     8  the legislative body of the city by a two-thirds vote thereof, but  such
     9  resolution  shall  not  affect  any  private right. No pavement shall be
    10  removed in any city under the provisions  of  this  article,  except  as
    11  directed  by  the legislative body, nor until the corporation seeking to
    12  remove the same shall give a bond in such sum as  the  legislative  body
    13  may require for relaying of any pavements removed.  In case any pavement
    14  shall  have  been removed and not properly relaid, the city may sue such
    15  corporation, for the cost of relaying such pavement.
    16    § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
