Section 2. That the authority granted hereby for the construction, installation, operation, and maintenance of said aerial encroachment shall not be construed as a surrender by the Metropolitan Government of its rights or power to pass resolutions or ordinances regulating the use of its streets, or the right of the Metropolitan Government through its legislative body, in the interest of public necessity and convenience to order the relocation of said facilities at the expense of 12 Nashville, LLC dba Music City Pizza.
