The following limitations shall apply on the use of a building moving permit:
(a) The granting of a permit does not guarantee that the load described can be moved without damage to the pavement or structure, although the permit is granted on the assumption that the load can be moved without damage, based on the best information available. The permittee shall be held liable for any damage caused by the movement. The City assumes no responsibility for damage to the permittee's equipment or the load being moved due to any such failure. The permittee agrees to hold the City harmless from all claims, damages or proceedings of any kind, and from all responsibility for personal or property damage (public or private) caused directly or indirectly as a result of the transportation of vehicles or objects.
(b) The permit shall be in the possession of the driver at all times during the progress of transportation and shall be shown on demand to any police officer or City official.
(c) The permit granted restricts the movement of the vehicles or objects to the streets specified, between the points designated and within the time allotted.
(d) No vehicle or building shall be left parked on a roadway, either day or night, except in case of an emergency, in which case adequate protection shall be provided for the traveling public.
(e) The operator of the vehicle must comply with all laws, rules and regulations covering the movement of traffic over streets and with legal weight limits posted on roadways or bridges.
(f) A permit is void at any time when road, weather or traffic conditions make travel unsafe.
(g) A permit will not be issued for built-up loads that are divisible into legal loads.
(h)- Oversize or overweight loads shall be operated or moved at such speeds and in such a manner as to cause a minimum of interference with other traffic and minimum impact stresses on structures and pavements.
(i) Loads having extremely large dimensions shall require additional protective measures when necessary for the safeguarding of other traffic. Due regard shall be taken of traffic in both directions and every possible effort shall be made to prevent traffic congestion. Red flags, one or more flagmen or a pilot car may be required.
(j) Noncompliance with the general or special provisions of a permit, exceeding the weights or dimensions granted, or operating on dates or upon streets other than assigned, shall render the permit null and void and the operator of the vehicle subject to arrest.
