(A) It is unlawful to engage in the business of erecting signs, and no person is entitled to a permit to erect a sign under this chapter unless licensed to do so by the City of Brooklyn Park, except as provided in division (B) of this section. Such license may be granted on written application accompanied by an annual license fee in the amount set by the Council, to the Sign Ordinance Administrator in such form as the Sign Administrator prescribes. The license may be terminated by the Council at any time for cause. No license will take effect until the licensee files with the city a bond with corporate surety in a form approved by the City Attorney in the penal sum of $2,000, conditioned that the licensee will pay all permit fees required under this chapter, pay any fines imposed upon the licensee for violation thereof, will conform to all of the provisions of this chapter, and will indemnify and hold the city, its officers and agents harmless from any damage or claim resulting from or related to the erection or maintenance of any sign in the city by the licenses.
(B) Bonding and licensing requirements are not required of a property owner(s) erecting signs on their own property. All other provisions of this chapter apply.
