A “house mover” means any person who undertakes to move a building or similar structure upon, over or across public streets or property when the building or structure is of such size that it requires the use of skids, jacks, dollies, or any other specialized moving equipment.
An exception to Section 124.02 is any building which is of such size that it can be loaded upon any duly licensed truck and which can then be moved without coming into contact with any utility lines or any other public service corporation property.
Application for a house mover’s permit shall be made in writing to the Building Official. The application shall include:
1. Name and Address. The applicant’s full name and address and if a corporation the names and addresses of its principal officers.
2. Building Location. An accurate description of the present location and future site of the building or similar structure to be moved.
3. Routing Plan. A routing plan approved by the Police Chief and public utility officials. The route approved shall be the shortest route compatible with the greatest public convenience and safety.
The applicant shall post with the Clerk a penal bond in the minimum sum of five thousand dollars ($5,000.00) issued by a surety company authorized to issue such bonds in the State. The bond shall guarantee the permittee’s payment for any damage done to the City or to public property, and payment of all costs incurred by the City in the course of moving the building or structure. Said bond shall remain in full force and effect for a period of 30 days after the same has been filed and after that date may be released by the City if it is then determined that there is no damage for which the bondsmen can be held liable.
