(A) Any person or firm engaging in the business or occupation of pruning, treating or removing street trees within the city must first apply for and procure an arborist's permit. The permit fee of $25 will be paid in advance to the Clerk-Treasurer. The permit may be issued once the applicant has filed an application and he or she is in possession of liability insurance in the minimum amounts of $300,000 for bodily injury and $50,000 property damage indemnifying the city or any person injured or damaged resulting from the pursuit from the endeavors as herein described.
(B) The permit is valid for 1 year unless the City Tree Board revokes the permit upon evidence of the arborist's failure to apply principles of good arboriculture or there has been cancellation or other termination of any insurance policy upon which the original permit was awarded. Appeals of this procedure may be submitted to the City Tree Board.
