(A) No person shall move or operate upon any of the city streets any vehicle with a load or loads in excess of those permitted by the California Vehicle Code without a written permit from the City Traffic Engineer.
(B) The City Traffic Engineer, by written permission, may authorize a load or loads in excess of those allowed for in the California Vehicle Code if, in his judgment, the streets upon which such vehicle is to be operated can safely withstand the additional weight, or if the applicant will guarantee to the city that all costs of repairs to the streets or to the public property of the city damaged by the movement of such load or loads will be paid in full. Such permits shall be granted upon such conditions and upon depositing such bonds as the City Traffic Engineer in his discretion may require.
