               any needed contracts for pole use. Pole space and other facilities obtained from utilities
               and other lawful users of the public way shall be at the cost and expense of the grantee.
               Within 30 days after completion of the make-ready survey identifying the routes of
               the system facility, the grantee shall apply for all additional licenses from the
               state, city, or other necessary parties, such as the railroads for crossing under
               or over their property. In any event, all necessary applications for permits, licenses,
               certificates and authorizations shall be applied for in a timely fashion so that such
               filing and processing shall not interfere with or cause delay with the construction
               scheduled as outlined in the franchise. Failure to make such timely application and
               timely filing shall constitute a substantial violation of this article.
