As a condition precedent to the granting of any encroachment permit, the City Engineer may require the permittee to furnish evidence to the city that, with respect to the operations he performs, or the operations performed for him by contractors or subcontractors, pursuant to the encroachment permit, he carry public liability and property damage insurance in amounts determined by the City Engineer to be adequate for the work for which the encroachment permit is issued. The insurance specified in this section shall be carried by the permittee at his sole cost and expense and shall remain in effect until all work required to be performed under the terms of the encroachment permit is satisfactorily completed. The City Engineer may require such certification as he deems necessary to substantiate the insurance coverage of the permittee prior to the issuance of the encroachment permit.
