(a) A canopy or marquee extending over a sidewalk may be erected and maintained at the entrance of any hotel, church, hall, theater or other edifice where public assemblages of people occur, subject to the following conditions. Any such canopy or marquee shall in no case extend, further than the curbstone in front of such building. It shall not have any of its parts or supports resting upon the sidewalk or street. It shall be at least nine feet in the clear above the sidewalk, and shall not be more than four feet high from its lowest to its highest point.
(b) Before any canopy or marquee is erected, application for permission to do so, accompanied with the plans thereof, shall be filed with the Chief Building Official by the owner of the building to which it is attached. Upon the Chief Building Official being satisfied that it is in conformity with this section and will not imperil the public, a permit shall be issued for the erection and maintenance thereof, conditioned that the applicant will save the City harmless from any damage to persons or property by reason of the erection or maintenance of such canopy or marquee, and that the same will be removed at any time upon sixty days' notice from the Chief Building Official to do so.
